Default Will a rsx type s muffler fit a eg sedan. I've searched!! PICS!?!?!

Can a rsx type s muffler fit on a eg sedan?

I've searched several times but couldn't get a direct answer.
I know i will have to do some cutting in order for it to fit, but will the muffler it self fit. Will it hang? Tip stick out to far?

Anyone with pictures?? Pictures would be great.

Thanks ahead of time!

Why do you want that muffler?

On the factory muffler there is a flange on the muffler intake pipe by the axle that connects to the B pipe, the hangar fingers are welded to the muffler/pipes and are in the exact position they need to be. What would you expect cut if the muffler is not the same for both cars?

I looked at diagrams at Acura and Honda for the RSX and my EK. There are no specs but the mufflers in the drawings do indeed look close but it does not mean thay are the same.

I want a quiet/stock look. I do not want a loud exhaust. I plan to run straight piping to the muffler.I know the muffler is not the same size for both cars. I'm going to have the piping cut and have custom piping added.

yeah, if you just want to do this spend the money to make it easy on yourself. Just go to Joe Blow muffler shop and tell them your name is NIKE, "JUST DO IT".

haha were cheap *** honda owners who buy cheap aftermarket mufflers so we dont have to pay 1,000,000 bucks for an OEM one...i love the idea though. the OEM look is great....i wonder how big a TSX muffler is, seeing that it is factory turbocharged it has to be the highest flowing oem honda muffler

it can fit in there.. a buddy of mine has one on his 98 2dr, when he ran it along with the factory piping it real close to the tire, it looks damn good with the rear lip. hes got a b18ls motor makin that S type exhaust sound good... he had to do a lil bit of cutting and re weilding to tuck back in and fit right... no pics at the moment

not sure if this helps or not, but saturday I picked up an 06 si muffler for my 92 SI. I cut off all the piping and hangers, re-welded hangers in the correct spot and did the piping. The muffler fits in the given area with no problems and sounds pretty good. Not sure the size difference between the SI and RSX though. Good luck

I agree. I didn't want loud either, and I'm basically running that setup: DC 4-2-1 headers, test pipe, '2 b pipe into an oem Si (eg) muffler. Sounds great.

You have a picture of this? I have a 92 si and an rsx muffler in my garage and was just wondering if this would fit and if you could show me a picture. 06 si and rsx type s muffler is the same right?

i could probably get a picture up here in the next few days. but no man it would look dumb if the tip got cut i think, you'll understand when you see it.. it is nice and quiet tho, and sounds great with full throttle, just pure intake, but has an embarrassing rattle type sound in the low rpms
