Re: EJ6 Build (97 Civic DX)
First thing is swapping the cracked exhaust manifold and clogged cat with some 4-2-1 headers and a resonator

Re: EJ6 Build (97 Civic DX)
I think more of the problem is people complain they can not find them for the same price as a beat and ragged civic. I can find them all day in the DC area, but you are going to pay a little bit.

Its because there are so many ragged and beat civics around here, they think they are all race cars that deserve race car prices, which drives up the price of the unmolested cars.

Re: EJ6 Build (97 Civic DX)
I dont know his reasoning behind it, he has yet to get back to me. But from what i have read on honda-tech i will need an o2 sensor ext. But he insists its just a waste of money.
Anyhow, i hope the 2.5" piping, resonator, and 4.5" tip won't be too loud

Well you do not need to buy one since you can extend it yourself.

Swap that muffler for something else or you are going to regret it =[ Loud and raspy AF! Yonaka has a special going on right now for hatches. $300 for the catback. Sadly I emailed them and they don't sell anything for the del sol and they won't sell me "just the muffler" =[

i really like my N1 ebay replica thats a 4 inch muffler. Amazing deep tone sound and not loud and raspy at all. Think i paid $45 for it? Another $80 for custom piping and i like it.

Hoping not too too loud and raspy. I'd just likely replace that cracked intake and get rid of the loud, crackly, rattling old exhaust. Lol seal up that head and get better hp and mpg.

Re: EJ6 Build (97 Civic DX)
Same color and miles? ;P Mine was in pretty dang good condition. It needed the usual service tune up, and now I'm replacing the parts I want. Did it come with the oem mudflaps, intake cover, and interior hath cover?
