I am interested in buying exhaust for my car but i have a '96 Accord LX and all the sites i visit say that the "trim" is for EX... would this specification fit on my LX??

Any help is appreciated..

Thanks
Jeff

 

I think it would fit but don't quote me on that. What sites are you taking about?

 

like prostreetonline.com and a couple other sites...

 

they should be the same, except the 2 door and 4 doors that will be the only difference

 

With exhaust, your best bet is to take it to a shop and have the mandrel bend whatever size piping you want and bolting it up to the "can" of your choice

 

What TxTuner said... thats what i have done and you can feel the gain. i got 2.5 piping with an N1 style can... and i love it and all of that cost me about $300 total

no, they all interchange, ive personally swapped my exhaust onto lx, ex, coupe and a sedan. an accord wagon would be a different story however.

 

what do u guys think about greddy evo2 cat-back exhaust??? i can get it for around $450 shipped??? does it sound good??? any opinions? i want it to be loud with a good sound(not a coffee-can sound)

Thanks again guys... i would take it to a shop but i do not know any around my area that i would trust...

 

go for an Apexi World Sport, quiet, makes power, and reasonably prices....around $350-400 shipped.

If you can find a Greddy SP New, get that. I had an SP on my 95 Accord EX. Great sounding and looking. the SP2 doesnt look the same but I'm sure the performance is the same.

 

sorry for the O.T. but since we are talking exhausts... I bought a tanabe g-medallion a while back for my cd7 and it was supposed to be "cat back"... well when I got the exhaust it didnt bolt to my cat, there was about 1.5' of space between the end flange and the exhaust. I got it used at a great price so I didnt sweat it too much, just got some piping welded up to fill in the gap. So was my exhaust missing a peice or maybe it was for a different car? anyone know?

dont meant to jack the thread, just figured someone might know.

You got one for a 90-93 Accord. Basically the same exhaust except 2 inches shorter. On the 94-97 Accords you can see where Honda just welded an extension. On my 95 stock exhaust it has it.

 

bump... what does everyone else think about exhaust on a '96 Accord LX???

Thanks Jeff

 

Apex'i WS II exhaust for the accord.

 

I have the Megan Racing cat-back on my 94 and i love the sound and performance from it. It only cost me $290 shipped

 

thxs everyone!!!

 

the difference arises from the cat flange....# of doors means nothing, and i might be a tad bit off on the details, but im pretty sure on OBDI f22b1 accords, the cat flange to the b pipe wasa a 3 bolt, while the f22b2 LX and DX were 2 bolt.....on OBDII, b1's and the LX/SE b2 were 3 bolt, while the DX was 2 bolt.....

 

I agree. Custom exhaust is nice, but if you want a premade bolt-on go gor it. All the ones that are being talked about, GRedy, A'PEXi, etc. are good, its all up to you & your personal preference.

you might be interested in their exhausts

 

i have a greddy evo2 and its a good solid exaust. However if i were to do it all again i would probably go the custom route with a n1 muffler like some of these guys have suggested. The other thing you might not like about the greddy it the fact that the tip is HUGE.
