98 prelude SH exhaust question please help!!! - Honda Prelude Forum

mr_hurt · 02-21-2009, 12:26 AM

How is everyone doing. Im looking to buy an exhaust system for my 98 prelude SH. I have no idea which one to buy. i heard the greddy evo2 is good. The only upgrade on my car is an injen intake. i want an exhaust that doesnt sound winy. im looking for a deeper sound. something like the sound of a G35 coupe or nissan 350z. i realize my car has nothing in common with these cars but i really like the sound they produce. please help. any ideas are welcome.

You will NEVER get your Prelude to sound remotely close to either of those cars.

I can think of a couple ways.

You can either buy the engine and swap it into the prelude chassis or you can just buy one of the cars you mentioned.

You could always try to get ahold of a Search Exhaust System. The full system has a noobulization filter in the catalytic converter.

But that would be too easy.

Tee-Dot · 02-21-2009, 12:49 AM

It would probably help his vtech hit harder, too.

look through the exhaust threads.

but yah not only do u need a badass exhaust.. u need headers, and probably also cams..

but i have a cai with an aem dryflow filter that filter denenitely added some depth to my exhaust tone.. and then i got the greddy evo.. car sounds awesome.. well still not as good as i want.. but ill get there.

So he can switch between different ones duh.

Tee-Dot · 02-21-2009, 11:42 AM

Duh. Quick release headers from Search.

Danomite · 02-21-2009, 11:44 AM

I never even thought about that. You guys are so much smarter than I am.

liquidxnitez · 02-21-2009, 11:44 AM

wow. you could change your engine tone on the fly with that!

Tee-Dot · 02-21-2009, 11:45 AM

Hell yea my cuz has them they are tyte.

liquidxnitez · 02-21-2009, 11:48 AM

You should tell your cuz to get the Search headers cozies. They help with insulating the heat away from the engines and vtech solenoid. You know he wants to goes fast and keeping those two things cool is the utmost importance!

Tee-Dot · 02-21-2009, 11:49 AM

idk dude my buddy just got one of those and he wasnt completely satisfied with the noobulization filter. from what i understand the Fastcar Exhaust System has a nubonic filter that puts out a roarin ass... 350z sound

I don't think there are many exhaust you can go wrong with. Youtube has a lot of exhaust clips for preludes for reference.

If you don't care about performance, you could get a better sound by changing your axle back or by getting a universal muffler (ie magnaflow) welded onto your existing exhaust piping. This would also be fairly inexpensive.
