Its not the twin loop... I dont know if they had an older exhaust, but it does have a JASMA badge which if it was a USDM copy, it wouldnt have. It was built ouside this country.

It very well could be an older Mugen piece. I dont know much about the parts before the ones on the king site.

BUt it is NOT the current Mugen exhaust as its not a twin loop.

actually the tip is almost the same as the US spec for the civic SI '99-'00 coupe.

you can ordered a Mugen axle-back exhaust which have the same tip as the pic above.

the tips are different are as compare to the ITR Mugen, and kinda looks the same but don't quote on me.

actually, i think there's some pics of the US spec civic SI on jdmhondaparts.com

You can't bend titanium like that.

yes it is the real thing.. i have that exhaust for a long time. it came out in 94 so it is pretty old. mine is not as dinged as that one though. i dont know how all those door dings hit it. i only have one from a spped bump.

oh yeah one more thing it is not titanium for ****. the whole thing is stainless steel. i bought it when it came out for like 1100 us dollars. it is quieter than the twin loop but for performance it is not the best.

Yeah it looks like it is the real deal after all. Here is a scan of the Mugen DC2 exhaust circa 1994-95. Looks like the one on ebay, although obviously that one has seen better days!

Hell, no reserve and starting at $250... Not a bad deal if it goes for near that price.
