#3 dual 3.5" round. They look the best.
I saw an immaculate 94 or 95 red SHO last night that had Gen 3 oval tips. It looked kind of odd. Too oval for that car. The car itself was beautiful, though. 2 young hotties in it too! thumbs_u

NJshofear: Please resize your sig. picture to 25K or less.

FWIW, I like the Borla turndowns on the GenI. IMO the rest of the above would be to much for the SHO.

hey, you should go to this site.. whoever.. and register.... it is.. www.fcone.com

basically just a ford site.. thunderbirds, a few sho's, few mustangs... were tryign to get everyone to join slowly but hopefully it will become pretty big

Hmmm...are single 3.5" muffs out of the question?

 

[SHOmuchFUN]

I have 3.5" round mufflers and absolutely LOVE the appearance. People GAWK eek!

 

[RI-SHO]

Or single slant-cut 4.5" muffs? I only recommend these if your ready for the rice comments .

 

[crizzaSHO]

I like the ovals.....

 

[NoSloSHO]

3) Dual 3.5 inch round thumbs_u

It makes it look more "ballzy"...Something about the ovals don't work well with a Gen I or II...IMO.

Were you going to do a two of these or just a single muffler?

Has anyone seen a DTM tipped muffler on a SHO?

 

[NJshofear]

Its gonna be two of whichever i chose...probibly the dual 3.5 inchers.

 

[JaySHOguy]

I'm most likely going with a single muffler(left side exit), with dual 3" outlets.

I saw a pic of a Gen1 with the DTM tips... didn't look so hot shoot

 

[crizzaSHO]

DTM tips are for DTM cars.....German touring cars.....not Taurus or crappy civics I see everywhere with these mufflers...but thats my opinion

 

[SHO5]

Duel round look nicest to me i got borla on my 97 SHO and it looks great you should also look at the big rounds ones like i have

 

[nothingtoseehere]

I actually like the square ones. Look kinda unique and neat. Would probably look very nice on a Gen I as the car is more square cut.

 

[NotoriusCSR]

ive seen the dual squared DTM mufflers on a 93 SHO and he kept his dual exhaust, so hes got 4 tips.... it looks, and sounds, like ass. like it makes the noise civics make sound like a V8, its disgusting.

I like the look of number 1. But I worry about the sound this will produce. What characteristics should I look for so that is doesn't sound raspy, (Civic) or too loud (Noise Ordinance)? #1 or #3 would be my choice, but like I said, how will these sound?

There gonna be loud no matter what because at the majority of these muffs are a straight-thru design. Only way that you could deepen the sound, you can install a stianless steel cat-back and most will tell you to remove the resonator, I myself have removed it and think it still sounds deep.
