Well its nothing spectacular but it will get the job done. Its like most other name brand stuff except its way too expensive for its quality.

Please DO NOT BUY THESE! They are for a 98-02 Accord V6. That will not fit the 03. The 03 you cannot change the headers. They are intergraded into the engine. You can replace the J-pipe which connects to our catalytic convertor. The catalytic converter is actually bolted to the engine with a side mount. You need to open your hood and look at the setup so you know how it works. PM me if you need help.

nothing is wrong with buying from ebay. You just need to know what it is you are buying. I have found quality products on ebay. It all depends what your looking for.

Daaamn, lol. what would i do w/o you guys. aight ill take a look at that J-pipe man. and i took a look at the engine, yeah that really sucks man those headers are pretty much blended into the engine. what do you guys think about after working with the headers, taking the whole exhaust out and puttig 2 magnaflow muffs. and then 2 separate pipes traight to the back with no cats just the 2 magnaflow, then putting some shinny tail pipes.

i would highly suggest not doin that. unless its just very temporay before you get a real catback. which that would be a waste of money so basically no don't do it.

a custom mendrel-bent cat-back with magnaflow mufflers is a great idea. it will be cheaper than most after market systems if you shop around. it will be loud as hell, probably in a bad way, if you don't run a cat or at least a resonator in there somewhere. i'd go with a carsound cat (made by magnaflow).
