Feedback - It'll sound like ****.

If you leave your stock exhaust on, it's not going to sound much different than stock lol. You should just take your axleback muffler off if ur looking to just be loud and annoying.


if your stock, your accord is just going to be loud and slow, especially with an automatic V6 or I4

OP, please don't buy a cherry bomb glass pack. I had them on my crown victoria, a V8, and after 2 or 3 weeks, they were so ridiculously loud and droned at all rpm's....just buy quality mufflers, save yourself the disappointment/headache. You'll eventually replace it, so just buy a "quality" stainless steel muffler (Magnaflow, Apexi, Greddy) instead.

please don't:roy:

The perfect example of a Cherry Bomb with muffler. This "paisa" guy actually lives by my old job and he used to pass by my shop red-lining every shift. Car sounded loud and awful, just like in the video. A 2.3L engine will sound louder than this and slightly deeper but so yeah, scary. Almost like a dirt bike.

If you're looking for a Cherry Bomb style resonator - use a Magnaflow. Many lengths available and won't make your car sound like ****. The muffler is what really makes or breaks an exhaust tone/note mostly but those Cherry Bombs have baffles inside unlike a Magnaflow which is straight through, free flowing and noise absorbent. Then, run a nice muffler to give you a nice tone (Magnaflow or Dynomax) which are among the cheapest and offer good performance.

Here are some samples:

Sorry for multi-posting. Wont do it again. I have a J30A1 by the way, and I would get #87521 to replace only the stock resonator, just behind the cat.

You want your car to sound close to a g35? dynomax resonators and a nice muffler.

Were not going against you on purpose, it's just that we've already done it before and experienced the results.

OP -
VIBRANT makes good resonators also. Lil cheaper than Magnaflow, maybe?

Add a longer Resonator and your exhaust will be deeper.


If you want a louder exhaust note -- Remove the Pre-muffler and, please forgive me, a test-pipe in place of your converter.
