I want another exhaust the one I have is fucking annoying, loud, and it stinks. Any recommendations on a exhaust? I am looking best sounding and not too fucking loud but sounds good enough, so that when i am rolling in neutral its not like i am redlining 3rd gear.

air intakes lag turbos?

and shopping for this motor, since its jdm, I dunno where to look could I have some sites or something, I dunno what should be my next reference? there must be a difference between a d16a and a u.s d16. help a brother out, any criticism on how noob i am can be taking as long as your helping me out. it would be greatly appreciated.
Buy a DD. I bought a supercharger for mine in 2001,
since I wanted the baddest-ass SC Sol in the world!
I figured: if you don't drive it too often, didn't "rag" on
it, and maintained it properly, everything's cool. I've
recently been buying internals, (not cheap), to make it
"bulletproof" before I get it all together, but this shit's
expensive, but worth it, IMO. That's why I suggest the
DD. I got the SECOND DD, (Honda Wagon), to drive
when the Nissan's being repaired/serviced, but that's
another story. My next, hopefully last, internal will be
CP 10.5:1 forged pistons. Well, I forgot the new head
that I planned to get portflowed for the SC. I
guess that's why I suggest a DD, or two.
Exhaust: My Tanabe is decent: Tanabe Super Medalion Hyper Spec

Never heard of that...everything I've read said short intakes are best for FI.
I'd get a B16 or B18 myself. I bought my D16 new, and
it's a "mission" with me!
