If you're going all custom piping, you can make anything work.

Another route would be to grab an ex exhaust mani/header, ex downpipe/cat, and bolt it up to the cat-back. You'd also have to extend your O2 sensor wires for that to work, also.

I think that was covered in the sticky.

Answer: yes- the extention pipe just extends the exhaust up to the LX's header/cat combo so it bolts together, without it, there would be a big gap with the EX exhaust on an LX or DX
