Yes... they will fit onto the engine. That answers your question. lol.

The 4-1 should fit all ex, lx, dx fine... 4-2-1 is where the problem I think.

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about
think of it like this, the EX exhaust setup (header/downpipe-cat/exhaust) is different than the non-ex models (lx/dx/etc),

in order to fit an EX header fine is to also hook it up along with an downpipe/cat/exhaust thats meant for the EX.

got to keep in mind the o2 sensors are placed different as well..

^ Correct. You would need everything for a ex from the exhaust manifold to the exhaust system. Yes you can to the custom setup you said as well.

it will fit. by the way, our cars only have one header so its header. not headers.
