Exantus Creations Installs Thermal R&D Acura Integra Performance Exhaust

Exantus Creations Installs Thermal R&D Acura Integra Performance Exhaust

When it comes to enhancing the performance and sound of your Acura Integra, a quality exhaust system is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make. YouTuber Exantus Creations recently completed a full installation of a Thermal R&D Performance Exhaust on an Acura Integra, and the results speak for themselves: deeper tone, better flow, and a cleaner, more aggressive look.


“The reason why I went with a Thermal R&D Exhaust was because it gave the car a much deeper sound with the full exhaust on there.”

This install marked the final step in a three-part upgrade process. After already installing the PRL front pipe and downpipe, Exantus Creations rounded it out with the rest of the exhaust, all the way to the tips - and Thermal R&D was their brand of choice.

They wanted a deep sound without the irritating drone that so often goes with it, and Thermal R&D exhausts all come with drone free True Helmholtz Technology. Some install tips he noted along the way include:

  • Use an exhaust hanger removal tool to save time and avoid frustration.
  • Keep aftermarket gaskets from prior installs, they may be useful. In this case, the PRL front pipe gasket was reused.
  • Loosely fit everything first, then align and tighten once all parts are in place.
  • Leave a bit of overhang on the exhaust tips for a balanced, OEM-plus appearance.

What Makes Thermal R&D Stand Out?

  • Sound Quality: Thermal R&D exhausts are known for their deep, refined tone. No tinny rasp or drone - just smooth, assertive sound that complements your Integra’s performance.
  • Fitment and Build Quality: The parts aligned well and bolted up cleanly for Exantus Creations, especially with the help of an aftermarket PRL front pipe.
  • Visual Appeal: Exantus opted for black exhaust tips instead of the traditional chrome, adding a sleek, custom look to the rear end.
  • Smart Design: Everything from the pipe diameter to the muffler orientation is engineered for both performance and install ease.
