HP Header on LX
- Exactly! Aside from a lot of guessing, has anyone succesfully put a HP header on a DX/LX? I've heard of possible problems with the front anti-sway bar, but is this in fact a problem? Bottom line: Is there any reason a HP Header + an EX exhaust will not perfectly fit a DX/LX?

Well people. I'm going to make the HP header fit the LX. I am about to order one and install it in the next week or so. Even if I have to use a sway bar from an EX, it's going on there. They can't be THAT much different underneath. I don't see why it wouldn't fit. The bodies of the two are exactly the same. It doesn't seem that there would be more space under the sway bar in the EX. Did they make that area larger or something?

Both Ex an LX are the same car but different enigines ands trims
the LXs' cat is right off the manifold ( in the engine compartment) with 2 O2 sensors coming right off of it
The EXs' cat is underneath the car with 2 O2 sensors coming right off of that.........
The bolt patterns for the Headers are the same for both cars...... You can get the HP Headers for an Lx but the cat would be moved to the bottom of the car just like the EX...... but you will have to extend your O2 wires...
