RSX Exhaust?

I have been wanting to change my exhaust for a while, I have an 2003 civic LX.

I really like the look of a RSX type-s Exhaust.

I was wondering is there a huge difference in the years, For example between 02-06.

Anything i should be looking for when purchasing one?

How does it sound?

Did you keep your resonator on?

If anyone has any pics that would be great.

Thanks

RSX exhaust wouldn't fit on the civic without modification because of the length issue. Secondly you wouldn't get any performance or really sound because it is still oem spec piping which I believe is around 2.25"

Seems like a logical statement to make, dosn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out

Re: RSX Exhaust?

ha ha...i too am curious about the rsx exhaust. i could swear there were a couple members on here that had done the swap. and since the oem piping for our civics is like 1.5 to 1.75 inches, i think there would still be some gains to be had using the rsx exhaust.
