Good job using a OG company first time I bought DC header was 1998
Right on!!
@@ahcgarage Hello. Are you guys in P. Pines Florida? I’m living in Weston and super close if so. I need to install eibach springs. Do you offer this service ?

@@ahcgarage what brand down pipe are you using on this . I would like to purchase one. Thank you.
You can just tell, it high-quality product with a high-quality fitment and sound.
Deeper exhaust notes create more drone. I have a 2.5" catback for my 2.4L Accord Coupe 6MT and the resonator droned crazy due to the manual gearing. I swapped in a Vibrant Resonator and it got rid of majority of the drone and is not as bad anymore.
Thanks for sharing
Seeing DC Sports stuff gives me all the nostalgia from back in the day. On a different note, have you guys seen the rear air vents mod going around? I feel like that is something you guys would tackle. Would love to see it anyway.
You can’t go wrong with DC Sport full exhaust 🔥🔥🔥🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Yes indeed!!
I like the sound, nice Job 👍🏽
Glad I went with the Magnaflow....damn near zero drone and sounds awesome.
Hey brother been looking into exhausts and magnaflow is on my list because of the no drone do you also have a downpipe?
@@patrickkalinowski3598 no down pipe yet
I had a 98 intergra GS (not GSR) with a DC 4-2-1 header, I wanted to pair it with a DC exhaust but I never had a chance to.
Sounds great, before hitting boost it sounds very similar to the DC Sports Catback I had on my 2005 RSX Type-S back in the 2000s. Loved the sound, but that drone slowly got to me over time without me realizing it until I sold the car! I also had DC Sports on my 1997 Integra GSR in the 90s, it didn't have any drone on that platform, they seemed to change their formula a bit, but it was a bit too quiet on the Integra. That deep sound is amazing though, other exhuast companies remove drone but cut out all that deepness in the process. Hard to get the right balance especially since everyone has different tastes.
Well said!!
Any idea when the full exhaust kit is off back order ? Thank you looks and sounds great!
Should be in the coming weeks. Please check back by clicking the link in the description
Available now! Black tip version will drop soon.
THIS! This is what the Type R / Type S should've sounded like. Honda/Acura Exhausts are wayyy too conservative especially compared to their German Competitors.
Love the idle grumble but I’m just not sure about under acceleration.
We have sound clips toward the end of the video
@@ahcgarage yea I commented a bit early after hearing it in the garage and the drive by outside. It definitely sounds good from the cabin under acceleration. The drone would be the only real concern left. Glad to see DC still in the game.
Drones not bad with stock downpipe. Very easily hold a normal conversation.
cool sound, nice and deep
What is the 0-60 after all of the tuning and modifications? Which mods are most worth it? I live in New York and am confused about what is and isnt legal in regards to the exhaust and am unsure if its worth upgrading the intercooler for the sake of driving during road trips in hotter states. I am quite new to learning about the possible mods that can be done on cars. I do wish that Acura offered an OEM front lip option. I have the cf spoiler, diffuser, and side spoilers and love the way they look but the front end looks too simple and elegant (imo) compared to the rear due to those accessories. A subtle, non-obtrusive front lip would work so well to fix that.
Which exhaust do you like better, DC Sports vs Mugen on your Integra? Just wonder. DC Sports is nice sounds and performance for 90’s Honda, Acura, Nissan, etc. I am glad that DC Sports is still offering the performance for Civic Si and Integra now. 😁👍
Sounds and looks incredible! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Thank you!!
Want to be my personal mechanic? I love the channel, keep up the great work!
I think it sounds great!! Built Honda motors (turbo) perform better with the 3” more power and a lot louder.
Yes!!
This sounds great
Agreed!!
Damn I really like the sound of this exhaust and I think it looks great. Really considering this for my Integra but wondering about the drone. I usually always have music playing while Im driving so do you think the drone would be less noticeable in that case?
It’s not bad with a stock downpipe. Would be too subjective in volume to give an opinion with downpipe.
This set not only looks outstanding but sound perfect too!! Nice job guys!! Did it add any power at all or midrange power I should say?
With the front pipe it adds 5hp. All the gains are seen on the downpipe.
@@derekmatherne172do you know if a tune is needed if using the front pipe inclided in the kit? Idk if mentioned in the vid
Lol how much for that PRL front pipe? I’m up in St Augustine 😂
Haha!!
Hello, Did you use the stock 3 bolt gasket or was that part of the exhaust package?
Due to the PRL Downpipe, yes 👍🏼
I NEED IT
Which BOV or Adapter are you guys running ?
When lifting in the air? Do you use the pinch welds as where to place the lift?
Another awesome job gentlemen while i can still call you gentlemen freely.
Will you guys please do an inter cooler install on a 2.0 TLX
Will add that to our to-do list
Does the catalytic converter remain after the full exhaust switch? And if so, would it still pass smog. ?
Sounds good! Do you guys think you will be able to finally get into the low 15’s with this set up?
Aside from one car mag getting really slow times.. They've pulled a 15.0 flat with the car bone stock. And anywhere from 6.6 to 7.2 0-60.
With his mods (330lb tq) he should be in the low 14s
you guys make me regret getting mine with a CVT.. but love all the work you guys do
Thank you for tuning in
If you want it bad enough you can trade in on a 2024 6MT. The CVT is not bad tho
Wheel and tire specs please!!
It sounds perfect, but for a type R, or maybe an only track car
It’s much quieter with the stock downpipe in place
Where can I get that spoiler
John and Mike. You guys are awesome! I learned so much from watching you two. I was engaged the entire time. I’ve owned Acura TL’s in the past. Currently driving a ‘23 TLX A-Spec. Eventually, I’d like to do some minor mods. Keep up the videos and great work! ✌🏽
isnt it amazing that all the ricers at heart are now in their mid 40s? and car companies are making nice tuner cars again. its me, im a mid 40s ricer at heart.
Thanks Mike and John for another banger of a video and loving the deep throaty sound of the DC exhaust 👌🏽👌🏽
Hey great videos. I’ve got the same car. You get any engine lights on ? I just installed a PLM down and front pipe + k&n typhoon intake and now the dash says emissions system problem and rev match system problem. Any ideas will help thanks
Hey brother it’s your downpipe only downpipe that I’ve heard doesn’t throw a code is the prl catted downpipe and they don’t sell it anymore
Sounds incredible 👍👍👍
Right on!!
Hey quick question I was wondering I’m buying a 2024 picking it up Monday it’s cut but how do I get those crackles and all that I’m new to customizations and I’d love to know how to maximize the cars vocals being a cvt if that changes anything
I want one…. 👍
But the stock exhaust is one piece which is great...DC exhaust sounds too boomy/find it more drone than i would like it to be
Hey I’m the video it sounds like you said catless downpipe but showed catted which one do you have in the car?
Looks clean, sounds good
do i have to get my car tune if i do this dc exhaust system on my 2023 integra?
Sound just like my remark. Will probably sound better when it breaks in
Forgive me for my ignorance but how much mpg do you lose after these upgrades?
We did not see a noticeable on the mpg
@ahcgarage thank you kindly for your response sir.
Stop making integra videos you make me want one
Ha!! Thanks for watching
This is the same set up I’m going to run on my si. I also got the dc sports front pipe to replace my PrL front pipe. The PrL pipe is too large and I can hear it hitting something when I make turns. The dc sports is a little small so it should fit better.
Sounds awesome
Could I get a similar sound with cvt?
Lots of 1.5T honda engines blowing out their headgaskets. Is it safe to push the car this far with a 1.5T? I know you guys are pros and make it safe as possible but its more like a mechanic issue right? Let me know!
Will it fit 23 civic sport ??
I believe it fits the Si trim and not the Sport
Man I would love to hear how this sounds on my TLX Type S, this sounds really good
Sounds like my greddy exhaust back in the day……I luv it
Where in Florida are u guys located?
“I’m a ricer at heart”
😁
Nice ❤👍👍👍
Just checking in with an update on my experience with this exhaust.
I hate it. It drones so badly that my teeth feel like they are rattling out of my head. Also every single slip joint leaks and no matter how it’s positioned or tightened there is no way to fix it. I will be switching out to something else really quick.
Are you running a stock down pipe with the set up?
@@alexandermunoz5110 PRL downpipe
O.g. Integra sound ❤❤❤❤❤❤
*SATURDAYS ARE FOR THE BOYS*
😊🎉🎉😊
Right on!!
How the sprint booster work for u guys so far?
Works really well for us
@@ahcgarage ok great wasnt sure i had one before and works wonderful, wasn’t sure if it work on this ones… good to know just waiting to be shipped and try it out.. Thank u for everything appreciate it…
why everyone make full resonator ... where is the old day for honda sound just no catback little resonator on mid pipe and muffler.
