Rep Power: 263 you know whats funny? ive been looking into the EXACT same thing this past 2 months. from as far as i know, you can just buy the muffler itself and have it welded to our midpipe.

Rep Power: 306 the rsx-s axle back wont fit. i had one, never used it. it's basically too short. it has the right bends in it, but the tip would sit a good 8 inches too short of the bumper tunnel.

thats my car and yes the axle back will fit. but like skipbarber said, the stock rsx exhaust tip ends about 6 inches short of the civic's bumper (for the coupe anyways). you'll have to get an extension welded onto the end.

Rep Power: 277 I had the integra type-r one. Close to the same as the 05-06 rsx-s ones. It had a valve in it that opened up at higher rpms. Sound was great and not loud. Must be welded on. Different hangers on the actual muffler. Loved it until the swap happened.

Rep Power: 280 the axleback exhaust from the rsx sounds stock, you wont notice anything different in terms of sound or performance.
i'm not sure if the type-r and the type-s (mine) is different, but i didnt have to weld anything. the rsx axleback bolts directly onto our stock midpipe and the hangers match up exactly too, it just falls short of the bumper.

Rep Power: 281 ^^ That looks just like the RSR. Looks great but if you got the cheddar..just get the RSR cause its bolt-on. BOth make noise.

Rep Power: 311 Well I apoligize for not be able to catch every single thread that has been posted on this site. I said that because I personally was not aware that this could be done, or that people have done this, and obviously (from some of the posts on this thread) others have felt the same way that I did. So that's why I am praising the thread starter, who brought this to attention for those of us who are just getting into modifying, or don't sit here and search back through the million pages on stuff we never knew about. Anyway, thanks on answering to this thread again because it looks like you have pulled off putting the RSX muffler on your ride, and as I had said before, it looks really good.

Rep Power: 287 ^^^actually it was CONFIRMED that the 05-06 type S mufflers DID NOT have the valve.
Someone from clubrsx a while ago, chopped up this muffler to check it and it turns out that it did not have it. I would search for the thread, but i'm too lazy.
