I’m looking for a good cat back exhaust. Is there a company that makes one that is particularly good? I would like one that brings out the sound of the engine and is not too loud. I definitely do not want a rise rocket fart can.

I would say HKS Sport Exhuast. It is pricey, but it's a direct bolt-on no welding or taking it to a muffler shop.

Hopefully you can see it on the car.

Hey Chris, did you have some custom pipes made for your car. When I went to look at the HKS home page they said they only had Mufflers, not full cat backs.

i went to a local shop, HKS retailer, & they have the cat-back listed in a 2002 catalog. guess their website not a complete listing. but it's only for the 2+0; 2+2s need a custom adaptor pipe extension, that's all.

That's right...a 2+2 needs an extra pipe. But my exhuast goes from the CAT back and comes in two pieces. Nothing was made up...all hardware was included. Very nice, so if I want to change up to a loud exhuast I can do it. It was worth the money in my eyes. Good luck.

Hey Chris, my car is NA. What kind of exhaust did you by and is your car turbo.

I bought the HKS Sport Exhaust...that's all HKS made to fit the ZX. I would've liked to have the Hyper or Dragger. My car is turbo. I love it. With your car I'm not sure if it'll work. The stock turbo pipe is 2.5" and the NA pipe is a little smaller. Actually I know it won't work, unless you get custom piping done and then you might as well go all out for the price you pay for custom piping. But just so you can see for yourself. I got my exhaust from www.alamomotorsports.com
Good Luck on your find.

I just put in a new catback exhaust three days ago.....I agree with the other post....I put in a HKS Sport Exhaust...@$440.00, but it sounds so much better. It is not loud at idle but when the turbo kicks in you can really hear the growl in the exhaust..
