    My car came with a skunk2 header and rr catback when I bought it and I wouldn't change it for anything. I like it so much I don't even turn on the radio I just listen to the exhaust

    I don’t think adding an exhaust to any car is considered ricer cause it’s usually the first mod everyone does

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      You do have a point

    • @grahams5146
      @grahams5146 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      But there are some exhausts that are like $90 new and are for the sole purpose of loud (with a bad sound tho). That’s considered ricer

  • @brandongood5117
    @brandongood5117 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have the same exact setup but I have the sedan. I paid almost $900 for the headers and the catback together. I can tell You, it's the best exhaust you can get for a honda civic si. This exhaust is as quiet as you want it to be. Unless you're going up mountains 24/7, it is a dream. My parents think it's too loud (they only listen to cold start), but my girlfriend and I went on a cruise and she actually ended up falling asleep while I was going up and down mountains. It backfires A LOT, so if you like the crackles and pops, get the alpha headers and megapower R exhaust. The rr will probably pop just a little more but will also drone a lot more. And just an fyi to viewers, the go pro doesn't do the sound justice. It sound a lot more raspy on a go pro than in real life. Any questions about the exhaust, I can help you out probably.

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Can't disagree with you on that! My girl loves it lol. I think it's one killer combo, alpha + meg R.

    • @StreetWorksMedia

    I just ordered the skunk2 alpha header and the megapower rr exhaust and then seen you post this video and I gotta tell you, every single question I had and doubt that I had was just reconciled by the content you released. Thank you so much for posting high quality content about your car. One question I did have, do you have experience with the 76mm megapower vs the 70mm?

    • @mattf2535
      @mattf2535 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Like I told Stephen, the skunk2 76mm and alpha header is extremely loud. I don't know why he didn't think so; it might be the initial euphoria or flashpro. Just a warning if you're okay with driving this setup every day. Hearing loss, tinnitus, noxious fumes, passenger discomfort, and loss of low end torque/misfiring if you don't have reflash or flashpro. The silencer helps but is an inconvenience and reduces torque if you have a lightweight flywheel. But if you like the sound and top end torque then yeah it's one hell of an experience

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Happy to hear that bro 💪🏼.... keep in mind, the RR might be a bit louder 👀. I try to make the most detailed vids that I can for all of you. Really glad you support and appreciate my content bro, means a lot 🙏🏻... unfortunately I don’t have a comparison of the two 👎🏼

  • @tylersimms6020
    @tylersimms6020 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Hell yeah bro awesome progress on the build so far 👊🏼 my opinion I would definitely say coilovers should be your next investment for midnight.. everything else is lookin solid right now. Yeah you’ll need brakes sometime in the future but you’ve still got some life left on those. I’d get a set of decent coils then wheels and tires. Love watching your videos and seeing the build progress man.

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man, nothing too crazy, just minor bolt ons, but i love it. Either wheels or coilovers bro ;). More coming, love your support man

  • @dakotaculp9792
    @dakotaculp9792 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the video and you did an excellent job describing the exhaust however, coupled with a Tsudo header and k&n typhoon intake, this exhaust WILL drone. I love how the car sounds at high rpm’s but at about 2500-3250 the car drones a lot.

      @Cjharps2442 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      My stock exhaust on my rsx type s rotted off behind the resonator, so I'm using this as the perfect excuse to buy it lol. Good thing its on Amazon now... 2 day shipping!

    I have a '08 Si FG2 too and I got FBO, injen intake, throttle body spacer, lowering springs, HONDATA flash base map, and full SPEC-D exhaust system in which yeah it was pricesy $500 but I love it. I got a few videos with it, let me know if you want me to send you the video that way you can hear it

    • @AdamLongint0x191f2
      @AdamLongint0x191f2 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      JJ Bau5 spec d is not pricey its like the cheapest exhaust for these cars

    • @maddog063
      @maddog063 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wait what? I actually didn't know Spec D made a higher quality exhaust. I thought they're whole thing was being inexpensive. At least when I was looking at exhausts, I only found Spec Ds $150 product. I'd be interested in hearing it.

    • @jjbau5892
      @jjbau5892 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Adam Long mine included the headers and I love how it sounds! Low RPM has that deep rumble sound but if you get on it, it sounds different

    • @johndough27
      @johndough27 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      JJ Bau5
      Yeah I didn't think that brand as expensive... I have an ASP custom k20 header that was $1400 alone, currently tho I have an Alpha header paired with a Full Race catback... the FR 3 inch was $600 and the Alpha was $450

    • @johndough27
      @johndough27 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not sure your setup is considered FBOs either... if you're running a stock TB & stock RBC
      I have the HR CAI and a J35 TB and a port matched RBC along with an Alpha header and FR catback

  • @krayzie281
    @krayzie281 6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Always thought the skunk 2 was nice on those cars I have a 9th gen si and have a magnaflow which I really like cuz it’s not rice sounding it just sounds like a more enhanced version of the stock exhaust

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      That was the plan with my 8th gen. I didn't want loud, but here i am with skunk2 lol. I was going to buy a megan racing catback for my 8th, but they were all out of stock and i got an awesome deal on the junk2 haha.

    • @krayzie281

      @Cjharps2442 4 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @oldsklteg
    @oldsklteg 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    The full race seems to be the best exhaust for the 8th civic. Thats just from listening to youtube pulls tho soo i could be wong.

      @johndough27 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Full Race is absolutely the best! My opinion. I have the FR paired with an Alpha. I have an ASP k20 custom header still sitting in the box... curious if my setup would be any louder if I threw the ASP on...

  • @jaredshattuck3616
    @jaredshattuck3616 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You are right about the no drone. I have a 3" XLR8 Catback paired with stock header. The mega power seems to add the deep rumble because the tubes are slightly unequal length. Mine has barely any drone at all but when you hit vtec, it sounds like a sports bike, not ricey at all even though it is only stock header. Good review man

    • @MrGunzngirlz

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nice dude 👍🏼... did they discontinue XLR8 because I couldn’t find it anywhere. Love the way that exhaust sounds just as much as my megapower. Thanks for watching man

    • @jaredshattuck3616
      @jaredshattuck3616 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Logλn L with stock header i dont get many crackles and pops. Only a couple when WOT shifting and downshifting. If you had a skunk 2 im sure it would crackle more

    @felipeluna9328 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I have the MegaPower R 70mm with a Injen CAI on my '08 Si. I absolutely love it!
    No drone, nice deep growl, and I also get that "backfire pop" that you get haha. Sounds great at higher rpms and sounds like there's nothing there at lower rpms/cruising.
    Sweet ride man!

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @StreetWorksMedia
      @StreetWorksMedia 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      yeah it does that popping because the unburnt gasoline is hitting the hot pipe of the catback (stainless) and igniting is how i understood it. the stock system doesnt do this!!

    Sounds good Stephen!
    You might just need a rebuild... but I would either upgrade your head or swap for a k24 block during the rebuild
    I'm rebuilding my k20 next year as well as the trans, also looking at the TVS 1900 Eaton supercharger... looking to make 450whp/300wtq.
    My FA5 has just under 90K on the clock
    My current setup is
    HR CAI
    J35
    port matched RBC
    Alpha header
    FR 3 inch catback (no cat)
    I have an unused ASP k20 custom header spec'ed for an all motor k20 build, so right now it's just $1400 sitting in a box
    TEIN streetflex coilovers
    Hard Race LCAs, endlinks, outer tie rods, and roll center adjusting ball joints
    SPC rear camber arms
    Stop Tech brake rotors, pads, and lines
    HR V2 shifter, shift cables
    Exedy Stg1 clutch kit
    With a pro tune I put down 227whp/166wtq on a dynojet, I went to King Motorsports in Wisconsin

    • @TheGerbsteve
      @TheGerbsteve  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      If it needs a rebuild or dies eventually, the plan is to pick up a k24a2 and swap the 8th gen with that. Boost? Maybe ill do that years from now lol. Damn man! That thing must pull like a mofo lol. There is so much mods you can buy for these cars, it's absolutely insane. More to come

      even if he only has bolt on basemap parts like skunk2 bolt on? i heard there is already skunk2 profiles for bolton headers, catback, CAI , manifold and whatnot (skunk2 setups), so unless you go changing your cams or valves or something, the dyno tune isnt worth it right?

    Loved the video. What I've noticed is people with stock header and cat usually have drone, people with a race header doesn't usually have drone.
    Also don't do drilled and slotted rotors. Drilled rotors tend to crack. Slotted rotors are fine tho. Personally I run centric blanks with stoptech sport pads on my daily, and when I go to the track I run centric blanks and carbotexh xp12.
    Good luck bro!

    • @maddog063
      @maddog063 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Micah Myricks normally, I would probably agree. If you intend to track ur car, I wouldn't exactly recommend drilled and slotted, at least from PowerStop. I had their rotors on my mustang (which were a steal at 70 bucks for a front pair alone). They do work pretty darn well and look great for the price, but upon a few reviews and those at American Muscle advised that they really aren't track oriented. However, for all intents and purposes, they were great for everyday use and shouldn't *brake* the bank. :3. I'd say go for it.
