do we lx guys need the megan racing downpipe or are we good to go with header and catback?

[speedfoos]

You need the DP man. You will be catless after this as well.

okay i have been searching but why is the downpipe made for the ex? using the lx magnaflow catback i wont have room for it

[speedfoos]

Ahhh OK, that probably changes things a little. Most times LX folks get a header, EX DP and EX catback. By getting the LX catback you've changed things a little. Does your current catback come in 2 or 3 pieces and where does it bolt up to your cat? Right there by the block?

you can always take all of your things to a muffler shop and say...please connect these.

[speedfoos]

^^^^ Good advice. Mastercard and a smile go a long way.

i believe megan racing makes a lx header now... it should bolt right up to your lx magnaflow exhaust as long as it connects directly to the header already which it should.

or you could do what i did and get the ex megan header (cheaper) and megan downpipe. you could still use your magnaflow catback because doesnt it have a removable piece to allow ex fitment as well??? do that!

[KTciv_03]

ex megan header and downpipe. around 220 shipped for both around ebay. or dezod sells them pretty cheap. or you could spend almost 200 for just the lx megan header.

yea i have the header made for the lx so it will bolt right up to the lx magnaflow catback. to foos yes the catback starts right at the block so my next question is the header has the two bungs i need but i will be catless so will i throw a CEL. if so is this where those defoulers come in?

[speedfoos]

Exactly. The $4 fix that will solve all your CEL problems. Weren't you boosting your ride not too long ago?

If you got a LX header, and an LX catback, then your set.. you'll need a nonfouler for the bank2 O2 sensor (the secondary one) so that you dont throw cells.

[civic-driver]

weapon-r sells one thats angle which is a little pricey but the spark plug none fouler wont work becuase it puts the o2 sensor right into the side of the ac condenser

why wouldnt it, i did mine that way... megan racing header, and test pipe... i got 2 foulers... and drilled one out... slid the sensor insode.... and 2 months later still no CEL! my sensor is close but never touches!
