4 of 5 2003 Civic SiR 2.5" Catback exhaust September 30, 2020
Reviewer: Marcel Weaver from St. Bernard, NS Canada  
Installation was a breeze, system went right up. It is somewhat tight in spots, especially at the rear swaybar. There is some contact knocking at slow speeds over uneven surfaces and there is the occasional knock under the passenger side floor. After a week of settling in, the car will go back on the lift to check and adjust clearances.

On another note, the response is much improved over stock, as expected. Also as expected, the cabin is noisier than stock as well. I am still playing with different rev ranges to find resonant frequencies to avoid in steady-state driving. Living in NS where few roads are flat, every hill brings a new sound and I can see long trips getting tiresome, so breaks need to be factored in.

This is on a car I bought new and has 568 000+ km. This system replaces the original one.

4 of 5 Best Bang for your Buck! January 31, 2020
Reviewer: Jacob R from Dallas, TX United States  
Bought this back during the Black Friday sale, and after having it on for a few months I've gotta say, this is an awesome catback for the price! It came super well packed, and included a BUNCH of Yonaka goodies too!

The exhaust itself is incredibly well put together. The welds are super clean, and once it's on the sound is perfect! It's got a nice deep tone. It isn't deafeningly loud, just enough to make shifting by ear easy, I love it.

However, it's not perfect. I have found two flaws.

1st, I noticed that the pipe to the muffler is UNCOMFORTABLY close to the rear sway bar, which means every once in a while I can hear them rattling when I'm at idle. The 2nd issue, which is that it has a noticeable resonate drone around 4000-4500 RPM. This wouldn't be that bad, if it wasn't for the EP3's short gearing... Basically, if you drive 70-80 mph on the highway, it's gonna be loud. But, for a sub $250 full catback brand new, I think I can live with that!

5 of 5 Great Product December 12, 2019
Reviewer: Samuel Gerwitz from San Antonio, TX United States  
Bought during Black Friday sale, free shipping from Canada to Texas did take a while and local UPS is pretty stupid, but it bolted on to my EP3 perfectly with stock Cat and sounds fantastic. Definitely feel a bit of a horsepower increase. Came with a license plate frame also. Very happy with the product.

5 of 5 Great quality! great price ! September 6, 2018
Reviewer: alberto zambrano from Schaumburg, IL United States  
I purchased this yonaka exhaust for my 2003 ep3 civic si. I recently purchased the car and it came with a low quality extremely loud muffler. I read decent reviews on the Yonaka and at the price point i decided to give it a shot. Wow super impressed! The fitment was spot on. Quality was A+. Took the car around the block and i was grinning ear to ear. Its quiet at idle and gives a nice deep sporty growl when you get on it. I have a header and a short ram intake plus the yonaka now. Great sound combo and feels great. Would definitely recommend. Awesome value for a stainless steel sporty exhaust
