Hey guys, I've talked about buying an exhaust before, but now my stocker is completely rusted through so I have to.

I'm not really into my car that much anymore, so I don't want to spend the big $$$ on a Brullen like I once wanted. I'd get an RS*R in a heartbeat if the tip was smaller.

I'm looking for something that's not loud unless you get on it and I heard thermals are like this. Anyone have some clips on an SOHC 2.2 or 2.3?

I read an article saying that GReddy EVO is quieter, but I really kind of doubt that... he he he.. I love my thermals... Maybe hondamaniac has a sound clip somewhere....

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-14-2004, 09:37 PM

Yeah, some other exhausts are quieter, but they have 4"+ tips, which I really don't want.

They only have the thermal classic system for my car, not the stealth unfortunately.

Thanks Thermalfi'd

Trust me Trevor...if you get the Thermal classic you will not be disappointed......

You have one? How loud is it? I want something I can cruise around town with pretty quietly, but it gets louder when I really get on it.

Thanks Rob

Thanks Rob

Yup, I have the classic. It's not that loud during idle....it's at it's loudest about 3,000 rpm and above...other than that it just has a deep grumble....but when you get on it, it let's you know it's there.....

oh, and you're welcome

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-15-2004, 12:31 AM

Very nice. Sounds a lot like what I'm looking for. Wish it was a little more quiet, but I think it should be ok...

I take it there's no bumble bee buzzy type sound to it when you get on it? I hate that noise

Time to send a PM to Stefan for a price check

Nope...no bumble bee....when it gets loud, it sounds like you have a set of nuts under the hood...

If I remember correctly, you should be looking at about $450-$475 ish.....I think...

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-15-2004, 12:38 AM

Sweet. Thanks for helping so fast

Rob · 08-15-2004, 12:39 AM

LOL...no problem Trevor...well, I'm gonna go eat my Taco Bell and watch some tv...talk to you later......

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-15-2004, 04:05 PM

Oh yeah, a couple more things

I've been reading around about this exhaust and some people think its pretty loud. Some say its in between.

Does it drone @ highway speeds (60-80)?

thermal · 08-15-2004, 04:42 PM

Mine gets deeper tone on higher RPMs...

C's 94 InTeGrA · 08-15-2004, 08:16 PM

I love my Thermal!!!!!!! Sound is just awesome. But now since i gutted my cat it made it even a deeper sound lol. But u will love it.!!!

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-15-2004, 08:30 PM

So I know its loud when you get on it... but is it loud just driving around town? That's my biggest concern really...

Also, its 2.25" for Accord, right?

Heh, I just don't want to dump $500 and be disappointed.

ebpda9 · 08-16-2004, 08:20 PM

i love mine too, on bot on the accord and the teg, but if you use a hi flow cat they are lowd as hell. seriously my accord sounds like a v8 rustang at WOT

Accord Man · 08-17-2004, 12:11 PM

Hey Trev!
If dont go with Brullen/Remus then Thermal is the way to go.
Even though its a bit louder, it still probably is a the closest match to the above.

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-17-2004, 01:52 PM

Hey JP, that's great to know! I've been quoted in the 700-800 USD for a Brullen, and I just don't want to spend that much on an exhaust since I'll never mod my engine too much more.

C's 94 InTeGrA · 08-19-2004, 11:20 PM

go for the thermal man. I mean look at alkl these replys on it. I know where u can find a clip of it on the net. The exhaust is on a integra. IT sounds loud on the clip but it sounds good in person

94_AcCoRd_EX · 08-24-2004, 01:00 PM

Well, I ordered the Thermal last night from Stefan. Can't wait to get it on

Thanks for the advice guys

Rob · 08-24-2004, 05:41 PM

No problem...let us know how you like it once you get it installed.......
