although its cool and all, you are still being restricted by the stock diameter of the exhaust, and thats all that really matters.
I would rather go with a 3" system that has a cat in it (although not legal to the letter of the law) with a stock looking muffler then a straight pipe like you did.
you will see more HP with the 3" over the muffler delete.

Too bad stock exhausts don't look 'stock' to the people that matter. Hence my search for a stocker than stock looking setup. Rolled tips are for civics.
