I recently bought an hks axle back hi-power exhaust from a protege 5, used for a year, and let me tell ya, it's as if it were made for the JDM EF. Problem is, it'll fit perfectly on the passenger side of the bumper, but theres no hole. And how ricer are you when you hack up your own bumper! I've seen a few bumpers out there with the exhaust holes on the pass. side. What year/trim-model did it come on?

thanks

^^^I believe he wants to know the "EF" bumpers that have the exhaust cut-out on the right(passenger) side of the rear bumper if im not mistaken.

I haven't seen any EF bumpers with the cut-out on the right(passenger) side. Besides the ol' DIY's which your trying to avoid.

exactly. hence why i posted in the Ef Section...

soodominican

there are none, hence me posting what hondas do have them on the right.

in other words sell the effing muffler and buy something for ur ED

hmmm... i'm pretty sure i've seen some stock with the hole on the pass side.

I'll try finding one

your best and cheapest way would have a muffler shop cut it off just past the rear lower control arm them have them angle it so the exhaust piping kicks out to the driver side on the bumper. it will look sweet at that sort of angle and for some reason i have been told it adds just a slight bit of more power due the the air flow direction,

i was thinking of having a bodyshop cut the muffler hole and the exact spot but on the opposite side, both same measurements. exchange spots. they do their magic, and it should come out right. hopefully.

Just have it come out the back of the right side side / ps. Nothing wrong with that.

That's how the BC spec1/2 is. I think it looks ugly when you have that HKS type of exhaust go from one side to the other behind the rear suspension. I had it like that on my old hatch and I hated after I had it on for a few days.

it's too cold to go outside and check (-12), but cant i run the exhaust from the header back to the bumper on the drivers side?

anyone got a under-car pic?

yeah thats simple. just take it into a exhaust shop and tell them what you want and they will have it done in a snap! well my girls dad owns a exhaust shop so yeah i know about it a little. you should have any problems thou if you do that. tell them what your looking for and what you want and they should be able to do it no prob.

thanks, Casey

do wat i would.. cut out so it'll look legit.. like cut the spot (like the left side) nd then the other piece hanging out trim it so its all missing. looks pretty clean if done right

sha-d

acctually looks pretty legit EFjunkie

That's not the USDM passengers side?

sorry, not trying to be rude, but can you rephrase your sentence? I didnt get what you mean :\

I could've just misinterpreted the picture, but i thought you posted in it in response to your question:

thats the way i was talking about. just being creative a little..

Those so-called Hi-noise...uh, I mean, power exhausts are a joke.
Noise does not equal power. There are plenty of exhausts out there that are properly fitting.
There's simply no excuse for hacking up a bumper for something like this.

I even cringe at hacking up a car for an intercooler. It all comes down to installer skill.

My crx has the exhaust exit the right hand ride, no cuts or anything.

Pretty sure he no longer cares. This thread is from 2008.
