cat-back question.....

just a question. when installing a new catback system, do you have to cut your existing system? I was just wondering because I have a leased vehicle, and want to put an exauhst on it. i will most likely by it at the end of the term but......

If the cat-back is designed for the 7th gen civic, then you should have no problems just bolting it on. Take off the olt exhaust from the catalytic converter on back to the exhaust tip. Then just bolt the new one right up. No modification needed. That for EX's though. With LX's and DX's and HX's you need to redo the exhaust system from the headers on down to be like an EX's.

I have never heard it being illegal but, yes it does void the warrenty if there is a problem with the exhaust or the exhaust cause that problem.
