My dx hatch has the cat/exhaust mani combo in one piece and I was wondering if I could get the exhaust manifold from a coupe along with the cat and mid-pipe and put it on?

 

it should fit....

get
header
cat
mid/b pipe....

rear section is longer on the coupe....but i believe everything else is the same

 

it should fit cuz it just connects to the cat and all..

 

I found out the hard way : Make sure they are the same motor. A Y8 exhaust manifold will physically fit on a Y7 (CX/DX) motor. BUT the oxygen sensor on a Y7 is on the lower portion -vs- (Y8) right on front of the maifold. I had the option to look for a Y7 Manifold OR lenghten the wires. Its up to you, hope this helps

 

I plan on using y8 exhaust manifold, y8 cat, and y8 mid pipe.

Don't you mean the Y7 exhaust manifold has the o2 sensor right on the front VS the Y8 has it underneath? I could prove this because I own a d16y7 and my exhaust manny has an o2 sensor coming from the front sticking right next to the A/C fan. There is also another o2 sensor running right after the cat.

 

Yeah, sorry..
