- Tue Feb 19, 2008 4:22 pm #42923 For when I'm going to build one of those big hairdryers on my car, I need a true 3" catback.

I have been looking into these manufacturers;
Thermal R&D
Magnaflow
Skunk2

But since no one in Holland has any of these, and only a few know of the first two I mentioned, I was hoping you could tell me yours or other peoples experiences with those exhaust systems (how they fit, how they sound, etc).

When you know another manufacturer who makes a good 3" system for the 92-00 2-4dr Civic, let me know
What I'm looking for; acceptable sound volume, good quality and fitment.

- Tue Feb 19, 2008 4:36 pm #42928 I've never heard a bad thing about Thermal R&D. I got a 3" catback used for $300, just have not had a chance to try it out yet. They do not come with a resonator, so the previous owner welded one in the mid-pipe. They were pretty quiet to begin with for a 3", a resonator will belp even more.

All 3 brands you're looking at are quality
You've got the right idea buying something good the first time and staying away from the cheap ebay ones

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

Welding in a resonator couldn't harm I guess, I want it to be as silent as a good 3" can be on a turbocharged application, but still having a deep sound
