Default JDM Titanium muffler.

Supposed to fit 94-97 Accords. It's Titanium and has an adjustable silencer. JDM. Only $45. Sound worth it?

I can't spend much right now, and I've never been let down by JDM products.

JDM isnt a company. and for $45 it cant be real titanium, titanium just as a raw material is worth a ton of money.

I'm guessing you found this on ebay.

I know it isnt a company, and I don't believe it's soild Titanium. It's some sort of stainless steel alloy probably containing a small amount of titanium. Anyways, yeah. I found it on eBay. But honestly, I'm not sure where to look online to actually find a muffler under $100 that's worth the money.

This is my problem. =//

Magnaflow. You don't need a giant fart can and you'll sound like a real ricer with a $45 piece of junk hanging off the back of your car. It's been proven that exhaust or mufflers don't do much of ANYTHING except make **** loud and annoying.

Well, I ended up going with a kool-vue muffler. Was a bit more pricy at $75, but I did some research and watched some vids before making my purchase.

I really wasn't getting a muffler for the noise. It's just that the one I have now is old and rusty and looks horrible, and I just wanted to replace it for the looks. From the videos it seems that the kool-vue mufflers have a good sound. Not so loud. And it's going to look a lot better than the rusty **** I have on there now.

Also, I'm way to broke to buy a magnaflow catback or i would have definitely done that.

It's understandable man, I'm broke too and sometimes you just need to replace parts with what's available.

Post up a video of the new muffler when you get it installed.

Well, I ended up getting cheated... Sorta.

I made what I guess was a rookie mistake and ordered from autopartswarehouse which ended up being a fraud site with charged filed against them by the FTC. It took many phone calls and false threats by me, but I was able to get all of my money back from them.

I should have known it was too good to be true.

It sucks, though, because none of their products even existed. Kool Vue doesn't even make a muffler for my car. I don't even think kool vue makes mufflers... Mainly OE replacement mirrors.

I can't find a muffler at all, now. At least not one that's direct OE replacement. I can't weld, so buying a universal muffler is out of the question, anyways. Not sure what to do now. Lol.

I looked but I didn't see anything. Lol. I need one that is a direct fit. I can't weld anything.

I've actually decided to go with the whole catback system. I found one by Megan Racing for $315 on eBay. I read all of the description, checked their feedback, and copied the model number to the Megan Racing website and found out that it actually retails on the site for $345. So I think I'm ready to make the purchase. I just have to wait a bit to save up the money. Being 17 with no job makes it kinda hard. Lol.
