what part of the exhaust is he referring to?

but it probably wont be to good to do it because your car needs back pressure to run right.

Yeah I don't know what exactly he's trying to tell you either, you ought to get a full exhaust system if you're looking to gain a little power & mpg. I'm running Pacesetter header (about $100), gutted cat converter, Pacesetter exhaust (about $300). Noticeable gain in power & sounds pretty smooth.

You can run a bigger diameter piping, which would be a bigger bore, but you can't physically "Bore" your stock exhaust piping.

This is true. You can enlarge section of pipe, but there's really no way to boring your exhaust piping.

If you decide to get an exhaust, please let me know. I have few options for this car that isn't really loud, but sounds nice.

Why not use a CatBack exhaust ? Integras sound pretty with them...

I like my cars to sound mean, like a neutron star exploding.. not pretty.

ok really funny...

I was just saying that an high flow exhaust sounds really nice. 3 1/2 inches exhaust + P-Flow is often a good use of money xD It's not that expensive....

Well, I'd like to get my exhaust to sound like a pulstar with "The Flight of the Valkyries" at full blast making Vietnamese people run and scamper..... Kind like this:

YouTube - Apocalypse Now - Helicopter Attack-...

But we all know that's not gonna happen.

Oh yea... Well I want mine to sound like like a Supernova...

When I drive my car its a mix of these two all the time
