you want a good exhaust just make sure you throw a nice resonator on there. even ebay will sound nice if you put a nice resonator on their. i personally think the yonaka knockoff of the apexi ws2 is nice. they're cheapt like $230-250 shipped and full stainless steel.

http://www.clubintegra.com/store/yonaka-catback-exhaust_mp499.html
The Yonaka Catback Exhaust is made with fully polished 304 stainless steel mandrel bended piping and a features a 4.25" tip. You can expect a quiet, clean, deep hum, without any irritating mid range raspy sound some other catback exhausts produce.


The Yonaka Catback Exhaust is a direct bolt-on and includes all installation hardware.

okay talked to my uncle today and my selections for carpet and headliner is buckskin ,doeskin ,maple ,desert tan ,briar brown ,bronz ,oxford what ever that is ,dark grey and sandalwood i like the factory sceam but would like to go darker so diert dose not show as easy or use dark grey since it is very likely to blend good with the black dashboard and also with black seats and just go grey headliner carpet door inserts and rear deck panle and the rest black w blue stitching and blue accents so tell me your ideas :cool

okay well i found a magnaflow muffler in great shape it is the single in dual out model the but should sound fagly like this since i also will be using same cat and custom piping well let me know what you think and if you think the dual out rather than this single out will make it louder or quieter or what

new pictures are uploaded finally got a diggital camra rather than that pic phone. so go check them out and sorry still have not got all the entirior cleaned up but as you can tell i am working hard on it found out the whole history of the car its a 91 accord lx sedan it was drove sparingly up until 2000 when it was locked up and sat in a field until 2008 when the mans son started using it for a work car running up and down dirt roads every day driving threw fields and etc he worked on the oil field so you can just emagine what he put it threw from 2008 up till i boght it in the begining of 2012 but y would someone use one of these cars for that work rather then the truck he had i just dont git it its a darn shame that a honda compact car would be put threw that but funny enuff it survived what he probably thought his truck wouldent

Okay well I hade someone explain to me that even tho I want more power and some better economy out of my car the engine has 319,948.3 miles on it it eats very little oil as is so the block and head obviously has minimal wear and tear on it as some of the engines you would buy to swap it was maintained very well so just rebuild it and add a few mods to the existing engine not a bad idea as I think about it but question is where can I find aftermarket parts to work on my f22a1 I have searched every where can't find cams pistons none of that I can find parts for a turbo build yeah but none as fare as naturally espired like I would like to do ehh 200hp or so is fine with me since I will be swapping it to a 5 speed any one point me in the direction for some high compression pistons and a cam with descent profile nothing extreme tho mi would like to keep no less than 25-28 mpg out of it with chipped ecu cold air intake yotta yotta but seriously any help is very helpfule

Look into some K20 pistons as they're the same diameter as the F22s. That'll give you some good bump in compression. As for camshaft, look into Bisimoto. I had a F22B1 Level 2 VTEC cam from Bisi and it was a night and day difference compared to stock. Noticeable in power increase. Do a H23A1 upper plenum intake mani swap while keeping your stock bottom. This pick up couple of whp as well over the stock setup.

Save some money and get that almighty Bisi NA header he's got. Claims to pick up to 30whp depending on the engine's setup. Thats like $800.00+.

OKAY WELL I ASKED AROUND AT MY LOCAL MACHINE SHOPS AND IT WILL COST ME $50 A CELENDER TO FIT K20 PISTONS INTO MY F22A1 AND I FIGGURED SINCE THE H23 INTAKE MANIFOLD CAN BE USED ON MY HEAD THEN CAN'T THE H23 ITB'S BE USED TOO AND IF RUNNING HIGH COMPRESSION AND ITB'S CAN I STILL RUN A SHOT OF NOS FOR TRACK USE ONLY as I am against street racing any help on these ?'s is very helpful
