lx exhaust??? Im currently looking for an exhaust and everywhere i look all i see is exhausts for the civic ex. i own an lx so will it fit or do i have to find an exhaust for just an lx. thanks for any comment 
Get custom exhaust done. I bought a real apexi n1 muffler for $200 and had a 2.25" MANDREL BENT pipe done all the way to the header and they put a new flange at the header so it is bolt-on for $65 plus tax and flange cost. it was liek $70 something total
You can get the Magnaflow one. Thats what i got since all of the other exhausts were for ex. It sounds really good and i feel a little difference in power. Very easy to install. All you need to do is get it welded where the clamps go.

Rep Power: 0 i called Skunk2 and they said u can use their EX exhaust system but you just have to have a muffler shop make a extensions pipe or spacer pipe or whatever they said.
Hey i have a question myself peeps. I have a HP Racing header with the cat, would I still have to get an extension pipe if i got an EX exhaust system.
Oh and there is website that has the skunk2 exhaust system for the lx (i think it comes with the extension pipe) but the **** is like 519 or something.

Rep Power: 0 i have a magnaflow and to tell you the truth it sounds raspy if you have a header. without the header it is still raspy but not as loud. i had my friend drive by and it souded like a bee. i got a flowmaster rear section and had t welded in place of the original muffler and it sounds great. it's got a low tone, not raspy at all and it looks almost stock so if you have a lot of mods like me you have the sleeper thing goin.
header
what type of header do you have cause if you have an lx header you wont need a high flow cat... but only kamikaze n obx make them for us... but if you have a ex... no you wont but i believe it is your have to extend all of your sensors to fit into the cat (pain in the ***)

Rep Power: 0 i have an lx and i had a kamikaze but i'm gettin a different one now. i don't have a cat though, and i am really not worried about it either since i live in texas and in my area they don't even check for that.
I need TP for my bunghole

Rep Power: 0 HP Racing makes a header for the lx... I called them up and they said they do, I even had the place where i bought the headers ask them if they make any headers for lx, and then i called them one more gin and they said yes they make a header for the lx, i think the only one is in chrome though and comes with the cat.

In response to the thread:
There are a few catbacks to choose from for the lx. Your other alternatives are to get an axle-back or get a muffler and get custom piping from a shop.

Rep Power: 813 You won't find a good custom setup. Those expensive kits have mandrel bent pipes for smoother airflow. Almost everyone who goes custom doesn't feel gains and usually has a really loud muffler sound.
Search for that one, I know members have converted to an EX-like exhaust system. Don't know specifics tho.
