Hey guys im in need of a catalytic converter for my civic hatchback cx. I dont want an aftermarket one but a use oem one. I need to know if an ex coupe, ex sedan, lx sedan, or any other dx cat is the same size as a cx hatchback. Can someone verify this for me?

the DX cat is the same as an LX or DX...one piece.




and the EX cat is just the cat....



so unless you buy an aftermarket header for the ex cat then it will fit.

hope this helps

is that how the cat is supposed to look like for a dx? So the cat is welded onto the header? I thought it is suppose to look the same as the ex cat because my brother has a dx coupe and his catalytic doesnt look like the picture below..

i used to have a 97 CX hatchback and the cat was just like the top picture...now i have a EX and the cat is just like the picture on the bottom... did he get a header from a different model?

no stock header. IS it because it is a coupe dx?

It's not a stock header unless it looks like the first picture. Those stupid manifolds crack.
