Hi All,

My wife has been driving a civic vx for the past 8 years and 135k miles (185k on the car). Its finally gotten to where it needs some work done and I'm poking around here for information. It's getting new struts, front wheel bearings, cv shafts and exhaust. Any recommendations on exhaust are welcome, I think we have the other stuff under control.

The VX has been doing ~40mpg average (winter, city) which suits us just fine, though better (or better performance) wouldn't hurt anything.

I've also got a bunch of motorcycles and a F250 (diesel) to tow the race-bikes around. My daily commuter is a 50-70mpg (all city) DR250SE.
