I just installed the OBX exhaust. I paid 175 including shipping from Sparktec. I couldn't pass it up for that price. It is a Cat delete full exhaust. It measured 2 1/4 OD and just under 2 1/8 ID. Hangers were all in the right spot. O2 bung was there, but will def need a non fouler since I set off they CEL within the first 25 min of driving. It has a nice deep tone to it, mid RPM it has a slight fart can sound, you won't be mistaken for a civic but it's there.. It has a good scream when up around the limiter. I'll post some videos and pics in a couple days. Overall I am happy with the purchase. I put a magnet to it and it didn't stick so I'm guessing its actually SS and not chromed metal. It was a fairly easy install. One of the manifold bolts was a b*tch to get off. Got new bolts and gasket to connect it to manifold and made sure to put anti sieze so I wouldn't have that same problem. One thing that helped me out a lot when installing the bolts to the manifold I compressed the springs and put zipties on them to keep them compressed, and cut them off once I had the bolts in the threads. Also ground down the retainer on the bolts just a little, if you get one you'll know what I'm talking about.
My final plan for it is to cut the muffler off and put a 100 cell catalytic converter where it was with a 7 inch resonated tip. That will hopefully be done in a few weeks when I go visit my parents and have access to a welder. I'll post up some pics and vids of that as well when I get it done.
