what kind of muffler do u guys think AESTHETICALLY looks better on an AE92? would u mount straight out or angled? thanx

ps i know its my car and my taste but i'm wodering what everyone elses opinion is, i personally like the canister types the best, is there any other ideas or pix?

tanabe racing medallion or anything that looks like it

the canister is not too big... looks really nice.

DEFINATELY ANGLED

they didn't invent the n1 canister look to mount it straight.

that is just gay

every time i see a guy trying to be JDM with a canister muffler and not mounting it angled, it looks terrible.

terribly gay.

angled, or get another style muffler.

hmmm.. that's what i was thinking of getting on my car.. a canister style muffler.. which way would you angle it?? facing upwards? or to the side? or both combined?

I like mine, it's an Oval Ractive muffler. It looks great and sounds great as well.. Again! I'll show it off at the September TN meet...

I think angle up and to the side is best looking...!!
My friend did that to his WRX and it looks really cool... ^^

thanx guys thats what i was figuring, angle side and up but not too much. n e wayz my next question is then what size canister should i get for this car? apexi N1 isn't that big is it? right now i have a canister that was on my camry sitting in my garage i was thinkning bout having put on my corolla but its the lager kind with a 3 inch tip out and 2.5 inch in, the overall size of the canister is about 5-6 inches in diameter so its kinda big. I'm worried bout putting on a muffler that doesn't have that much filling inside to cut down on the noise i don't want to ride around souding like some bumble bee on crack like most hondas. Is this a problem with the AE92 with its little motor and all? can i pretty much keep a smooth deep tone and stay away from high pitched raspy noises with n e kind of muffler onthis thing? thanx

well its a 1.6l, so it's gonna sound raspy.

my tip, use a resonator!

get a cherry bomb or glaspack and use it inline after the cat and it should deden down the noise pretty good.

after this, most mufflers sound pretty good, the 3 inch tip sonuds like a pretty good size canister for the ae92, 2.5" is getting normal sized.. post a pic of it.
