Summary:
I have a type r rear lip and caused exhaust to rub against it. I had to take it to a muffler shop to cut the muffler off and put bent piping on, but that only cost 40 bucks fo that and installation. GREAT EXHAUST! sounds super clean, loud, but not ridiculously loud. Hasn't been a problem with cops yet. Looks great, not too ricey. After all said and done, I would have gotten custom piping for the car for around 150 and just bought the muffler. I might even get get 3 inch piping and just keep the muffler. all in all...sounds great with my aem cold air intake

Strengths:
Looks, sound, made ride a little smoother. Feels like it flows a little better

Weaknesses:
barely add in hp, but which exhaust adds hp? none really.

Summary:
Other than the bolts on the CAT it was an easy install. Looks great. Sounds even better. (To get the cat bolts off, get an oxygen sensor remover, and take the cat off. Then work the nuts on the ground with a little elbow greese.) Sets my civic apart by giving it a strong agressive growl instead of an annoying high pitched rice burner sound.

Strengths:
Great sound, great look, easy install

Weaknesses:
$$$$ (worth it)

Summary:
This exhaust is perfect so far. When it was first installed it was completely silent, but after about a month it became broken in. It's got a VERY nice deep growl and gives maybe 10hp. Anyone with an integra should get this exhaust - it's perfect.

Strengths:
-amazing sound that you never get sick of -unique looks- with no body kit everyone can see the polished piping and knows you dont have a $50 ebay muffler. -Increase in hp - 100% stainless steel so it'll last as long as my car -excellent design and build quality -it is loud with your windows down, but quiet with your windows up

Weaknesses:
-it weighs the same as a stock system

stock, tanabe hyper medalian. Tanabe sounds a lot like the DC, but mainly inside the car. The tanabe system on an integra is fairly loud inside the car no matter what , but is quieter outside the car

Summary:
I was looking for months trying to find the right cat-back system to put on my Honda Accord. I knew I didn't want it to sound all riced out. So one night as I was searching for car parts, I came across this DC sports Twin Canister Cat-back system. Man, it was love @ first sight! I took a week or two so I could reaserch the product and find the best deal on the internet and then orderd it. My home boy and I installed it the day it came. The installation was a snap, only 30 min. When I started my car and heard that smooth deep rumble..... I had a big ass smile! It sounds GREAT! The fit is perfect and the look of it is just killer. As far as the Hp gain, I felt a slight gain in third between 4000 -6000. Thats with my DC ceramic headers and Injen Short Ram Intake. I havent experienced many other products out there, but I am very satisfied with this one. Still, I'm seeking performance parts that will make my Accord fly. My goal is to get my stock 150hp in the 300hp range. Yeah I have a 4 cylinder Accord and yes I have people telling me i can't do it. But when those people see my car in Super Steet, Import Tuner, Honda Tuner or what ever Mag, I'll be right there in the picture next to my car flippin em' off! So if you know of an excellent product that would help me, send me an E-mail, Peace.......oh yeah, It's been about 3 months now, and The System still soundz Good!!!!!!!

Strengths:
****Excellent Look**** ****Great DEEP SMOOTH Sound**** ****Easy Installation****

Weaknesses:
*Hp gain wasn't what I expected* Note: DC needs to make a high flow cat converter to go with this system!!!

Summary:
I put on my Dc sports Twin Canister exaust around 2 weeks ago and i have mixed feelings about it. First lets talk about sound. This exuast is low and i mean low sounding. None of this high pitched crap you here so many times out on the street. Its relatively quiet unless you floor it, when you do it brings out the beast. For performance i would have to say it is a major major dissapointment. At the track this exuast paired up with Dc ceramic headers only shaved 3 tenths off. That was sad. But what they say is true best performance = straight piping.

Strengths:
Looks like a million bucks Best sounding exuast hands down

Weaknesses:
where are the horses? too much cash
