i got a 92 with a b18 swap and i have a set of dc sports 4-1 headers.. I plan on buying a full TANABE catback system. Is this blot on or I have to have it custom fitted since its a integra motor not the stock with the stock headers. please give me a answer ASAP before I buy the system. If it wont work how do you guys do it with swaps in your egs if you wanted to do a catback. lmk Thanks

i belive if u get a header for teh b18 motor, it will be longer and will not bolt up to the stock civic cat, it has to be moved back, so u might have to do some modification.

im no exhaust expert tho

ya, i was thinking the same cuz my dc headers look a bit longer than a stock header off the stock motor that came in the hatch oringally. any eg owner out there that knows what to do inorder to make this work? thanks for the help so far.

try getting a header for a b16? im not sure, but 1 way is to cut and remove a piece of ur exhaust and reweld it

Facts:

1. Buy the Civic exhaust

2. All Integra headers EXCEPT THE GS-R will allow for 100% bolt-up usage as long as you have the correct Integra or Civic cat in place too.

3. Any 2.5'' collector "JDM" type header will need customizing piping somewhere - mine is altered at the cat since I also added a 2.5'' cat too.

I know this from first-hand experience. My 1992 Civic had a Gs-R swap first, so I had to extend my exhaust like 2-3'' to accomodate the shorter GS-R header pipe to make the cat and header bolt up.

My Type R swap did not require any mods whatsoever due to it's longer-than-GS-R header.

If you have a GS-R swap you can always just buy the Type R header and still not have to mod the exhaust.

LS swaps are 100% bolt-up as long as you use a header for an LS with a Civic exhaust.

So just get a ITR header and replace dc I have now and the catback should fit?

pick up an ITR header much more bang for your buck there than a DC header

No.

Keep the LS header and it will still bolt right up.

I said if someone had a GS-R swap they need to buy a header for an ITR engine to make it 100% bolt-up.
