Can I make this fit my car?

How hard would it be to make a spoon rear section (axle back) fit my car? Is there any reason it would NOT work?

I know I'd have to take it to midas or someone and have them change the pipe on it, but other than that, wouldn't it work fine? Are honda hangers all the same length or would they have to modify that as well? Which (if it matters) application would be easiest to modify for my car?

* 92-00 Civic Hatchback - All Models
* 94-01 Integra - All Models (Excludes 4 door model)
* 02+ RSX Type S and Base Model.
* 02+ Civic Si - EP3

Someone over at honda-tech is selling these for $335 shipped each, and I'd love to have a spoon exhaust on my car.

you would have to take the muffler off the piping, then get custom piping and custom hangers, because the piping from the models won't work.

Get an RS*R exhaust and call it a day. Why are you trying to fit this particular exhaust on your car? Brownie points with your buddies?

Yes you can do it. Exhausts are pretty easy to make fit. Might take a lilttle custom work but thats usually not very expensive.

Good luck.

Why? I like spoon stuff, it's small, but not that quiet, but it doesn't attract attention because the tip isn't 4". Brownie points? Not one of my freind's knows a damn thing about cars, especially hondas. I'm not out to impress anyone, I wouldn't drive a civic if I was.

Actually id get the DC5 one since we can use there rear sway bars the bending in the axel back must be similar it might even fit you know what im talking about there lower rear sway fits on our cars . dam i should have thought of this earlier maybe ill get a spoon ehxaust .
it would take the least mods if any to make fit our car there axel back is porlly very similar to ours well pipe bends anyway i dont know about the flang or anything.

here's good one, Spoon N1 on RSX-s, pic and sound clip.....

i believe our 7thG civic rear section muffler is longer than RSX....from the pic u see at following link. so, i guess no pipe extension needed!
