Speed Academy's exhaust was so bad... So we gave them an UPGRADE

We were happy to have Pete and Dave drop by with this gorgeous EF that came from Arizona. Although the body and condition was so clean, with a lot of nice parts - the exhaust on this car was unacceptable for the standards of Speed Academy. We were able to fly in Tanner Gokey from Gokey Garage out of Northern California and had him build a whole new exhaust system for it including a muffler, flex bellow, V-Band clamps and Nested Bends. Follow along for the process!

The older I get, the more I want an EF

I got a wagovan as a beater last year and have completely fallen in love with it. There's just something special about that era of hondas that's hard to explain until you drive one.

ngl, shifting at 9k rpm in my b16 crx that weighs 1900 lbs never gets old./ Highly recommend.

I have been in love with all Hondas since I was 16 and I'm 40 now. My last build was an Electron Blue Pearl 709 whp LSVTEC turbo EK coupe, but I have also owned an EG sedan that I swapped a D15B VTEC into, a 1989 CRX DX that I also swapped a D15B VTEC into (and swapped it from auto to manual as well as OBD-0 to OBD-1 with a P28 ECU), my first Honda was a 1992 Acura Integra GS that I pieced together a junkyard turbo kit for and made 257 whp at 12 psi. I have owned 76 cars in my lifetime, and I have ALWAYS wanted to get another DA9 Integra like my first Honda, but I live near Pittsburgh and it's impossible to find one in good shape. I would put JDM Stanley headlights on it (like my 92 had), I would turbocharge the B18A2, put a short geared LSD trans in it, make sure it has power steering and cold AC, paint it Tahitian Green with Pearl (BG28P) and it would be my daily.

I have built three exhausts in the past 5 years, and only used vibrant components! 04 Honda insight with a D16 turbo, 1998 honda crv NA, and a 22 Ford Maverick that's been decently modified. All sound amazing!

Vibrant has always been my favorite exhaust had one in my 01 focus zx3 but what cemented it was a hybrid system I had on my 93 eg civic hatch with a b16swap and jdm 4-1 header, best honda sound ever.

To be honest, I agree that the dual tip exhaust exit was way better, but the square tip doesn’t look that bad. It definitely fits the boxy style of the car 😆

Didn't look horrible but the quality of the old exhaust was!
