hmm, thanks for clarifying, trevor. i dont understand why it wouldnt work though, there looks to be enough clearance between the stock piping and the sway bar if the piping was like .25-.5" larger, so why would a new exhaust be that different?? or is it the muffler that is set forward more with these aftermarket exhausts?

I have the TCS and the RSX sway bar and there is just enough clearance. You might notice it touching once in while but its not bad. Im very satisfied with mine.

so, viciousvolpe or anyone else that has the Thermal R&D Stealth cat-back and the RSX 19mm rear anti-sway bar, does the exhaust fit, or not? if not, how bad is it (e.g. could i maybe move the sway bar over towards the exhaust a tad to add some more clearance?).

does it like, barely fit or is it not even close to fitting? is there no way it would fit at all from what you can tell? i mean, cripes, i measures the clearance between my stock exhaust and the RSX 19mm antisway bar, and its like 1.5" so a piping diameter increase of like .5" seems like it should work ok
not to mention, i would think that the RSX's exhaust would be mounted similarly if not the same in relationship to the sway bar as the 7thgens, and they sure as hell have many kinds of aftermarket exhaust. well, i'll see when my exhuast comes.
