Is there much interest for a 3.5" bolt on exhaust for different honda applications? This would obviously be designed for a turbo honda. Just wanting to get a feel of what you guys would like. Thanks

500-700 depending on options. Basic 3.5" SS construction with 3 bolt ss flanges and either a straight thru muffler or oval es. Resonator optional.

Plan for models...
92-95 hatch
96-00 hatch
88-91 crx

I think if you make them for the 96-00 hatch they will sell for any price. We have to make custom 3" ones for the EKs will build. Biggest out there is 2.5" thermal I have found.

 

Is there anyone out there that has pics of the 3.5 already on there car? And what would be the expected gains going from 2.5 too 3.5; and do they make a 3.5 es evol i currently have the 2.5 one? And what type of money are we talking about for 3.5 downpipe all the way back to 3.5 es evol. Thanks and sorry for so many ?

 

hrmm...so no one makes a 3" exhaust for the 96-00 hatches? thats interesting.

If i can't find an oval es muffler in 3.5"...what would you guys like to see as an alternative to that?

 

Nothing for Tegs?? Thats too bad, I would be interested.

 

96-00 EK hatch

Make them with the canister style mufflers! The Vibrant shorty ones are nice.

 

For the EKs it's tricky building the exhaust to go over the axle and still have room for a muffler. I think if you make a 3" that fits right you 've got the EK market.
As for Integras, I would go to straight 4" , You can get mufflers and piping easier and people love that 4".

 

Awesome... how much more would it be?

 

No love for 96-00 coupes?

 

Here's the deal so far...

I have to have a car to fabricate the initial exhaust for which all JIGS after that will rely on. Currently I have access to a Ek and a 91 crx. My current plans are fabricate the JIG for those two cars and then bring it to my "manufacturer" so that I can begin production.

4" exhaust is definitely in the mix.

Also, would you guys be partial to 3 bolt flanges, or would you like to see v-band options, and spring/tab combo's?

Thanks again!

I wont forget about ALL of the many honda's out there. I figured id hit the models which are most popular in SFWD and move from there.

 

So what do you guys think? Do you have any preferences? Price range you are thinking of? muffler options etc. let me know!

 

On a 4'' exhaust V-Bands would be awesome and WAY easier to work with and most likely seal better!

3.5" w/ v-band flanges and a magnaflow 3.5" oval would get my vote...or a JDM N-1 slanted look (but that may sacrifice ground clearance)

 

im running a custom 4" exhaust that I made for my EK. It was a biatch to go over the axle but I made it fit along with a 4" magnaflow 16" long muffler.

 

I think I would go for the N1 slanted look
