I want to get a downpipe for my 06 civic LX, what all am I gonna have to do? I know thats its not just gonna be a simple bolt on. I still need my cat-converter so ill be able to pass emissions. So I kno that im gonna have to weld it on further down my pipe. But what actually will I have to do to make all my **** work right? Please advice would be greatly appreciated

Where did you get the blue cross bar? Also does it get in the way of the oil filter when oil change comes around?

i have one, its called front lower tie bar. that pic isnt his, he got it from the site. you can get the tie bar also from megan racing for 65$. i sprayed mine red. i asked the same question about the oil change on HT, 8thcivic, and the honda dealership themselves. all 3 said "no" does not interfere with oil change.

with my H brace my front end if def much stiffer. you get a bit more grip when launching. ill post pics later, photobucket is blocked in school.

 

Thanks for the info

i have lx if ill purchase downpipe will it go all way up to the engine and replaces the big fillter thats on engine

 

no it wont, it will go from the cat converter,(which is bolted tot he engine) to the beginning of the exhaust system
