    I love the enthusiasm you have for the car. This is how I felt the day after I put my 4-2-1 header and Remus muffler on my CRX. Quality exhaust upgrades are worth it for sure. The thickness of the pipe is what gives it a good sound. All the ebay stainless exhausts sound crappy because 1. there's actually nothing in the muffler usually and 2. it's super thin metal and it resonates like mad and gives the car a tinny high pitched sound which is sadly characteristic for modified hondas. Thick stainless or steel piping gives a much nicer sound since perhaps the thick metal absorbs the high frequencies, i'm not sure. but for sure quality parts for the win.

      I picked up a Tanabe medallion for my b20v Integra a while back for dirt cheap. Haven't installed it yet because I've been busy with customer cars. But being an "older" guy I like an exhaust tone as close to quiet as possible but also want the extra couple hp. Glad I made the right choice.

    Good to hear another black ITR on the road with a 2.5" cat and not sounding obnoxious. Just like what I did on my 01 ITR. I may have the same cat you do! 2.5" all the way back but with JDM 4-1 header. I added 3 O2 bungs if I ever want to go the route of tuning. But after owning so many RS/LS/GSR and finally the dream ITR, I'm an old man that just wants to cruise with it mildly stock. Test pipe hurts when driving for long hours. Looking forward to more updates.

I have a 2000 Accord that is going to need a new Cat pretty soon (it's got the rattle). No codes yet, but I was thinking on replacing the exhaust system when I do the Cat. I know it's not an Acura Integra Type-R, but the car runs and drives great and after this video it made me want to do the exhaust even more. Great video! Thanks Eric.

Didn't know what RPM it was at, but it occurred more than once on both acceleration and deceleration during the "external exhaust sound" portion of the video. Thought maybe I was imagining it, or that it was an artifact of the recording, but you mentioned the buzz yourself, so I guess I wasn't imagining it... Glad you were able to figure that out.

    When buying bungs, you should get the right kind for the size pipe you are attaching to. They come rounded on one side to match pipe size.
