EXHAUST FITMENT QUESTION AFTER SWAP:::EK HATCH
search is down right now but i have a question...
i have a 2000 hatch with an espelir jt500 exhaust system which eliminates the need for a test pipe due to the increased length of the b-pipe which fits right up to the header(assuming you all realize the EK hatches have the cat built into the header).. i still have the stock d16y7 in there but im ditching it after christmas for an LS.. i was wondering if any of you know if the LS header will bolt directly up to my exhaust without custom piping/welding being done(like i said my exhaust is currently bolted right onto the header with no test pipe needed just like the stock piping)

Im not sure for the EK's.
But when I swapped my EG, the E-M flange is slightly-turned.
I had to buy a resinator for an Integra to get it to bolt-up. I hope that helps!?
*edit- After re-reading your post...
You might have to cut the flange and re-weld it slightly-turned, since a resinator isn't an option. Once again... I hope that helps!?

You need to get a GSR header, it should bolt right up. The LS flange is off. I think a B16 header is too short (vertically) to clear the B18 pan, so I've heard.
