I hate to say it, but that's a picture of the front of a BMW. Forgive me if I fail to see the correlation.

What would be the point of it? Well, just go to any muffler shop and ask them to make it for you, they will be able to do it.

However, it will be very inefficient. It has to come from the stock location and get routed toward the center at a very sharp angle right under the bumper because that's the only area where there's space. You'd be losing any gains you hope to achieve by getting an exhaust in the first place....but hey, it's your car.

but i am going to buy a body like this for a integra that is similar to this bmw but if i bought this body kit then i would have to put the exhaust in the middle because there is no room for it on the sides of the rear bumper on the body kit,on room in the center for it.

ps. why cant i participate in most topics and forums and send messages to other users? Thanks

hate to say it, but your first mistake is to buy a body kit, second mistake is buying a bodykit that would make you have to route your exhaust in the center, rendering no performance gains off the exhaust in the first place....

1) Did you scroll up and read my post? You will have no gains from that type of exhaust on your Integra. If it's a pure show car, then by all means, go for it. They want new and innovative/strange things in the show world. In the go-fast world, body kits do nothing except add weight and slow you down....and force you to get awkward exhausts.

EDIT: Maybe I'll be flamed for this, but if you are going for a show car....WHY?? Have you been to shows yet? The winning entries at these events have many many MANY thousands of dollars spent and thousands of dollars spent in custom work. If there is any hint of "stockness" there, you'll most probably lose. So okay, you have a hot looking car.....driving it on a normal road will get you rock chips, sun scratches, etc. You can't drive a pure show car around.

With something that's fast, at least you'll have the satisfaction of being able to drive it around and feel the power. You don't have to baby it everywhere you go. Maybe it's just me, but I find no point in a show car in today's world where the amount of money you have determines if you're a winner or not.

2) You can't post to too many forums and personal message people yet because you are still a Trial User. Look at your title under your username. After about 14 days, you'll become a normal user.
