Yup, I was driving to my firend's house and stopped at this stop light, a VW VR6 i think pulled up as well. Light trun green and we both floor it, It was pretty even, then just when I get ahead a little, he suddenly back down.. does that count as a kill? ;)

also I was switching muffler and discover my pipe is rusted with holes, so I leaved the muffler off, damn its loud...

Planning on getting 2.5 inch pipes all the way from the manifold monday, or what size should I use, I dont know much about exhaust.

My car is a 1991 Prelude Si with the B21A1 engine any advice will be awsome :)

Heh. Dunno that it counts as a kill. :o

B21A1? You mean H21? Anyhow....

2.5" is the biggest you should get. 2.25" is probably a better fit. You aren't doing dual exhaust are you?:no:

Its B21A1, its last of the 3rd gen preludes.

yeah after I did some research I went with 2 1/4 inch pipe, and its not dual ;)

also I put a Cherry bomb glasspack(yeah i dont have that much cash to burn on a coffee can muffler :D) after the cat, now i need a exhaust tip that look right for my car.

I agree...with a motor like that anything much larger than 2 1/4 - 2 1/2" is going to kill your low end torque. Just goes to show you that bigger isn't always better (even though it usually is). Nice kill though. :)

I wouldnt have done the Cherry bombs, I hate them on 4 cylinders just as much as I hate them on V8s, but thats my opinion. :pukey
