I am thinking about purchasing a Greddy EVO cat-back exhaust and was just wondering if anyone's running one or has driven a car with one on it. Any likes, dislikes, problems, etc.. Also, has anyone dyno'd with and without the exhaust?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

greddy evo exhausts are pretty favorable across the band... are you looking at any others?

Ive driven a prelude with greddy exhuast, cant say the exact kind but Im more than positive it was evo, but unfortently it wasnt for that long because i would have been fired if I just took it out on the street with the people waiting to get there oil change sitting in the lobby. Though thats why there is the back lot. Performance, dunno what they put out but greddy has by far the best sound for hondas.
Ive also ridden in a IS 300 with the greddy evo, and a 4 door tegra GSR with it.
o, forget reading anything I just said.
Greddy = Good.
Thats all you need to know

i hear a lot of good things about Greedy exhaust also. My next one is probably going to be one of the Greedy series or DC Sports (owned by AEM now). I kind of want to match the header and exhaust system also. anyways what do you guys recommend for good header and exhaust combination?

I want to get a DC Sports header and the Greddy EVO exhaust. I think the DC header has proven itself with a good track record for a while now. The reason I like the EVO exhaust is because someone finally figured out that we drive LOWERED cars and with the exhaust hanging low (like most other manufacturers)
the exhaust scrapes and drags everywhere (read: pain in the ass), but Greddy designed the EVO to be tucked under the car and not hang to low.
As for other exhaust systems, I've considered DC cat back and the Apexi World Sport II.

Hey, I have the EVO exhaust and I am damn pleased with it. I am lowered (not slammed, but a bit lowered) and don't have any problems with scraping, ever. The sounds is really good and never "drones" but I wish it was a little bit more throaty (like my previous exhaust). But its really a matter of personal opinion.
I'm installing a test-piped catalytic today, and if you want, I can record some .wav's of my car.
Oh, and the DC headers... I guess it depends on what else you have done, but I did not notice any difference after they were installed. The exhaust sounded the same and the butt-dyno was unimpressed. But I am sure that the headers would definately help after I do a few more things to the motor.

Hey DuckyD, if get get a chance, please do record some .wav files of the exhaust. I'm interested in hearing it on the f22 engine. Thanks.

I had stainless steel ractive headers, 2.5" inlet RS*R catback piping with Apex'i Super Dunk Muffler. The Muffler is damn huge. It had 2.5" inlet & 13mm outlet, the sound is loud! I like my ractive header too, it has two holes for O2 sensors, and looks exactly the same design with DC Sports headers.
All I know, I heard a lot of positive feedback bout Greddy exhaust though.
