Would a muffler change the sound?

I just bought a 2006 Honda Civic sedan today and I was just wondering, I want more sound so right now it has stock exhaust, my question was if I get just the muffler without all the piping and stuff would it change the sound? Or would I have to get the whole kit like the pipes and stuff?

Yes, just changing the muffler will change the sound.

Depending on what type of muffler you install, you can really change the sound of your Honda.

The great thing is that you don't need to change the whole system, just changing out the muffler will be enough.

Just find a less restrictive aftermarket muffler, though you'd probably end up with a sound that screams ricer.

  • Black stuff on my bumper around muffler? I have a 1998 honda civic dx, we just rebuilt the motor, my car has lack of power which I considering it the distributor because as I'm picking up speed it cuts out power like it's not getting enough spark to about 3000rpms then picks up instantly.

  • Is the sound a muffler problem if it is coming from the middle of the car? I found a 98 Honda Accord for sale by owner for $1000. It has a sound coming from the middle, and I think that I could feel some vibration coming from the shift stick. Owner said that it is the muffler. What do you think?
