Re: Noob Exhaust Question

dx/lx wont interchange with ex. ex has the manifold, midpipe with cat, pipe from midpipe to rear axle, and axleback with muffler. dx and lx have the manifold and cat as one unit, one pipe from manifold to rear axle, and axleback.

Re: Noob Exhaust Question

you can convert to an EX exhaust system. i dont have any experience with that since i already have an EX. many people have done it though. i assume you'll need the header, downpipe, cat, and cat back exhaust.

Yea, all you need to convert is an ex header(or stock manifold), a cat, extended wires for the o2 sensor, and an ex catback.

Re: Noob Exhaust Question

so IF he has a VP he should buy 1) EX headers, 2) EX cat and 3) EX exahaust system ???
or do the Greddy Exhaust system that sells on ebay for like $500 comes with all of the above except the headers???

I got the same car ... so blended in ;-)

Re: Noob Exhaust Question

Re: Noob Exhaust Question

So does that mean I could get the Greddy EVO exhaust I was really hoping for as long as I do the complete system for an EX?
