True Skunk 2 cat back?
I recently bought a skunk 2 catback. it measures 60mm. i have a 95 civic ex coupe and the exhaust was not made for my car, but given the fact that is was $150 i couldnt pass. i was told it was for a dc integra which would make it a very close if not exact fit to my civic. The issue is right after the flange on the back of the cat, this has a two bolt flange where my civic is a 3 bolt, and this offsets towards the drivers side and mine needs to off set toward the passenger side. It is two pieces, the front piece has a resonator and the back is obviously the muffler section. When i was on skunk2's website i looked through all there 60 mm exhausts and everyone looks like it was 3 piece and also they all looked to off set toward the passenger side, which is what i need. At first i thought maybe it isnt a true skunk2 but all the welds were definitely machine done and look to match. im pretty certain the back half is very similar to my car because it bolts up and seems to fit as it should. It the piece from the cat to that flange that im unsure about. If anybody with more knowledge on skunk2 would be able to chime in and let me know what theyre thinking it would be appreciated.

That flange in the bottom of the picture definitely looks like it was welded on after the fact. And close up pics of the welds? Normally skunk2 has their name on the exhaust... and that doesn't look like a skunk2 exhaust IMO

That looks like a muffler shop exhaust. A) turn the exhaust over, the hanger should be below the piping. B) The 2 bolt flange is a donut type flange; most likely eliminates your cat and bolts directly to the header.

And just so you're clear, the exhaust in the photo is laying on the wrong side... and more than likely the two bolt flange is supposed to replace the cat

yeah im aware, if you check the the photobucket link above i posted a few more pictures. apparently this came off a k20 swapped 4 door dc integra. So i dont know what for set up he had as far as cat goes. I think it was originally a skunk 2 full system, they just modded the flange and bend after the cat but before the resonator, does this sound logical?

Re: True Skunk 2 cat back?
ok. thanks alot guys, im pretty certain it is an older skunk 2, just the piece from the cat to the axle has been modified. Time to get out the tig and make it fit.
