it makes any car louder and unable to pass emissions, but better than a stopped up cat.....the muffler really makes a difference on the sound though....i gotta quiet mine down a little....

i have a greddy evo exhaust and a test pipe on my Accord v6. The test pipe made my car louder but the sound wasn't as deep anymore. Now, I sound more like my friend's civic who also has a greddy evo.
Mods: DC Sport Race Headers, Megan Mid Pipe, Tanabe Exhaust, Injen CAI, 17" Enkei Wheels
i got one ..
I have a test pipe on my civic..its louder and deeper on my car then my friends civic with out the test pipe. We both have skunk2. U definitly wont pass emissions but if u can get a 02 simulator and u live where there is obd2 testing and no emissions testing ur straight. So ..next year wen i go for my inspection i think i'll be ok..just so as long as i have a 02 simulator. Oh..and there is a power difference ..as far as ricey go's ..i say ..dat depends on the muffler or catback u got.

yeah i had one.. but you lose low end torque. like noticable torque and i didnt feel anything at higher rpms.. so i sold it. not really worth it in my opinion and plus it made my check engine light turn on... i lost back pressure and with that i lost everything else too
