Okay, few things. I wanted a u-bend delete, 3 inch downpipe, and slp powerflo exhaust. Questions:
1. How much of a gain would i get from this?
2. Is this under $1000 total?
3. Will this sound good?

um downpipes will delete the u bend and there like 150-300
and your 3800 will never sound good. headers, cherry bomb, and stock mufflers is the best sound. so waaaaayyyyy less then a g

If your not seriously modded you won't get any gain from the catback. Throw headers on and leave your stock catback.
11-21-2011
no but you will get a tad from the u bend. nothing super noticable

1. How much of a gain would i get from this?
You will lose boost, which can cause a loss of bottom end power
2. Is this under $1000 total?
I would certainly hope that you are not spending anywhere near $1000 for a downpipe and 2 mufflers...
3. Will this sound good?
No. Its a 3800... The only good sounding exhaust retains stock mufflers.

Well i'm pretty sure anything will sound better than what i have now. And okay i was unaware the dp removed the ubend. Right now, i have 2 huge honda civic ****ty sounding mufflers, then they connect by a pipe down to the ubend. My car has basically no tone or anything..it just gets louder when i rev it. Heres a pic of mine now, i tried to edit it a little better so you can see. So the stock mufflers aren't there.
11-21-2011
so you just have straight pipe to your "honda" mufflers.... no resonator/glass pack?
If no.. I would start there first.
11-21-2011
Yup, thats it..What should i get then?
11-21-2011
headers and a glass pack where the res was
11-21-2011
Alright well i can't get headers, thats like over $1000 installed and i don't have that
11-21-2011
Headers are only $200 installed if you do it yourself
11-21-2011
So header price+the $200 install by myself? still can't to that haha i have a budget, including downpipe, exhaust, resonator/glasspack
11-21-2011
The headers cost $200 and if you install them yourself the install is free. The headers include the dp. Then you can take it to a exhaust place and have them do the rest of the exhaust for a couple hundred.

Headers $200
2 Glasspacks ~ $70
Mufflers $88 for 2 factory mufflers from rockauto.com
If you can find a friend to weld it all together, you'll come in WELL under budget. If you go to a shop or want larger custom piping, it will come a lot closer to your budget.

and larger piping will net you nada. this is all easily done for under 500 bones. go to the junk yard and hack some stock mufflers, buy headers and beer and install them, have a shop weld em all up when done, and spend 25 bucks on a cherry bomb and have said exhaust shop do that too.

mind sounds like a rice burner when i rev it or go wot
stupid zzp catback

11-21-2011
no exhaust system and the headers come with a dp. you need the following.
headers-200
beer-60
a couple friends-free or bribe them with the beer
header install thread-free
a solid full friday
a 28inch cherry bomb 30 (some like 2)
stock mufflers 50ish
now start in the morning firday with friends and beer, install headers. sat morning take to exhaust shop to have them weld up the things you couldnt, and cut out your factory resonator to be replaced by your cherry bomb, and replace your mufflers with the stockers. end cost prob around 450 all said and done.
