And a lot more were positive. Search my posts in the last week and see how many postive vs negative comments I've had. I'm what you call 'balanced', where I mention when I like things, and I mention when I don't like things. You have to understand that not everyone in the world is going to like what you do to your car, and it should not bother you if you have confidence in your decisions.Originally Posted by LiTtLe xOx BitT
cool dude cant wait to see everything on the car.
Sure. I'd like to see them on the car too. I guess I'll reserve judgement til then, maybe it'll all work nice with your interior and it'll look good. But please don't be upset about any opinion that disagrees with you. That's what makes america great: Difference of opinion, but respect for the other side. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they're attacking you.
Well I just put the exhaust and high-flow catalytic converter on last night. Between the old exhaust setup and the pacesetter one with the cat it is about 20lbs lighter. The car is really quiet when you sitting still and at low RPM's but when you hit the gas it sounds great. You can definatly feel a power gain. Since I have the bodykit the tip of the exhaust doesn't stick out far and look flashy, it sits almost flush with the rear bumper so you can only see it from behind. In my opinion the exhaust is well worth the $190 and the cat was worth the $30.
I want pics!
Ill take pics tomorrow. Once I do the header I will try to put it up on a lift and take a pic from underneath.
$30 for a high flow cat?? is this the ebay special cat (test pipe) or an actual high flow cat?? if so show me where you got one, and post up some pics man
Its the ebay one, it has no baffels or anything in it, its got a nice polished finish, comes with gaskets and bolts and is light weight.

Wow, whered you get the cai from for 45 shipped?
theyre all over ebay, sometimes you can even find some that cheaper, just make sure that the piping is long enough to reach the bumper.
heh, that looks a lot nicer than the ebay deals ive seen. how is the quality of the filter?
the reason it looks that good is cause he painted it to match his car, i think.
you do know thats not actual cat right?? its just straight through, test pipe.
You cant tell from just looking at it and the place I get my car inspected doesn't really do emissions anyways so im not to worried about that. The CAI is from a 90-93 teg and it came in metallic blue and it has a nice washable filter. The bodykit is one of the spyder bodykits that they said was made for the 3g's but I think it was actually one off a 90-93 accord because there was a good amount of modifications needed to make it fit. Once I get the header ill take pics of the engine and underbody.
Does anyone have a header that they will be selling anytime soon?? If so send me a PM with a price and company name.
I wish I could help you out, I was looking into modifying the F22 header to fit as an alternative to the pacesetter. Haven't built up the guts to buy one on e-bay especially when they are selling their stainless headers at something like $130 dollars new, too good a deal makes me nervous.

is it required for every car in america / where you guys live to have a cat for your emission controll stuff. thats got to suck. cats stop flow so much
!
I have no cat, it just looks like one its completely hollow. And a little update on parts i got my armrest and installed that, it looks awsome ill take pics soon.
I've got the monza exhaust on my '88. I've had it on for somewhere around 3 and a half years. I'm still a fan, even though I agree that an upgraded muffler would probably help. I need to replace the entire exhaust system on my '89, and I plan on buying the monza once again. I will have a custom muffler put on it this time though.
And this is just a personal thought, but with all the upgrades on your exhaust, don't forget the down pipe. You've opened up everything but that so I'd say get a custom one mandrel bent and finish the job right.
Later.
yup pretty much... else you get fined like a couple thousand dollars.

Im getting some more body work finished soon and then after that im going to get a header and other parts.
Well I just got done puting on the integra cai and dc strut bar so here are some pics. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2110099/3
Intake looks nice. Did you run into any difficulties getting it on? What did you have to do? What brand was it?
Good job finding a DC bar, btw.
