*all stock except for a silver AEM oil cap.....that's right bitch!!!
its an excelent muffler... if you can afford it.. go for it.. but what would offer better performacne gains is a set of headers from pacesetter and a universal bomb muffler from EBAY... and then get a 2.25 inch cat back custom made at the local muffler shop

Yeah, i definitely wouldnt spend the money on an APEXI. I got a very nice muffler off of ebay, I'll take some pictures as soon as I can.. I just ordered a digital camera, and the muffler isnt on the car yet, because my hi-flow cat hasnt come in yet. I only paid like $60 shipped for it.. Let me try to find a pic from the auction..
1988 Accord LXI: Catco Hi-flo cat, 2.25" Stainless piping, stainless n1-style muffler, SR intake, NGK plugs and wires.
it wont be that same loudness and performance that apexi delivers but that will do if you get a custom exhaust to go with it
Mods:
*2.25" custom Catback with
Tsudo Carbon Fiber
Titanium Tip Muffler
*Racing Xtreme carbon fiber
pedals
*Civic Short Ram Intake
i have an Apexi on my car.. i love it.. sounds nice and looks good..

Just remember to strip the black paint off the headers and put on a high temp ceramic paint.
I'm your local R&D nut. Fabracting, welding, tuning and breaking my stuff so you don't have to.
i also have the axex i n1 i love the sound its not really loud or sounds like a bumble bee but i only have stock piping and no headers so who knows what it will sound like then but its definately a good buy but tanabe makes a universal muffler now too i dont know if you like the sound of the racing medallion but go to www.mackinindustries.com

I have the Apexi N1 and kicks ass!!! If you get the turbo model the inlet is like 2.5 instead of 2.25 like the other models!!! So, you hafta rin like 2.25 back and than go to 2.5 by the rear wheel or just run 2.5 all the way from the CAT!!! The Apexi will cost about 180 or so!!! Some on ebay that are 50 bucks arnt apexi!!!
Cold Air intake, Apexi N1 turbomuffler w/2.25 piping, H22 injectors,gutted cat, Dc sport header, accel coil, MSD ignition, Dropzone coilovers
personally.. i wouldn't run anything larger then 2.25..if you go bigger then that.. you will loose back pressure..and in result, you will notice a loss rather then a gain...

In regard to the muffler, I've heard Apexi is good stuff, if you can afford it. Same thing with DC headers. I pretty much live with the idea that you get what you pay for, so just be careful
BUt if you want the muffler you wont lose horse just running from behind the rear wheel!!! If anythin it will increase flow to help on top endd whcih the a20 lacks!!! Im running 16.3- so i reall dont think that exhaust is hurting it!!!!
