has anyone done this that can give me info on how they did it?
the Spoon N1 would be off of a DC5.
Does the piping match up?
would i only need to customize the hangers?
hope someone could answer this for me, thanks.

 

The only reasonable answer I can come up with is this:
I don't think the axleback from a DC5 is going to fit your FG2, i.e. piping angles and hangers, etc. It's two different cars with different setups. If you were taking an axleback from an FA5 and wanting to put it on your FG2 than it would work, you just have to ditch the extension/spacer that makes the the two exhausts different. FA5 is obviously longer than the FG2.

the "extension" as you call it is a slightly longer b-pipe on the sedan. axle back dimensions are the same from the fa5 to the fg2


DC5 axleback will not work.

 

search for this on the 8th. seen two people with this. one of them is in norcal.

 

Thanks for the correction. I was under the other impression that the extension was between the axleback and b pipe.

 

seen two people with what?

only thing I've seen on 8th about the spoon N1 is about the FD2 version.

also, there is a thread with pics about using DC5 header and exhaust but that was about using the cat back. *spoiler alert* it hangs too low.

 

Greddy sells an extension for using FG2 exhausts on the FA5.

From the factory, there is no extension: just a longer b-pipe.

 

 

actually search "spoon axle back"

 

just use the muffler and weld it onto your existing axelback piping. thats all an axelback is anyway.

 

he is talking about the muffler, but he wants to know if he will have to modify it by adding or removing pieces fromt he exhaust pipe. cuz that will cost more money etc, etc.

 

The OP is talking about the axle back. not the muffler. the muffler is only part of the axle back.

SIVIC 3 has a good idea





Zeusone, why don't you answer the OP's question since you know where to find all the answers?

 

i would but cant acces the 8th due to it being blocked at work./

 

he asked you, not 8th.

 

he said i know where to find all the answers, so it is where the answer is located which is not accessible at my work.

 

why dont you stop referencing other sites on h-t. you like the ocho so much, stay over there.

 

what 8th?

 

Is the fd2 N1 a direct bolt on?

 

well i actually got the whole axle back on my car, so you guys can stop arguing lol

sounds like a race car.......i had to.......it sounds tight

 

Was this a direct bolt-on or did you have to mess with the b pipe? If so, what did you do to the b pipe? I'm getting a Spoon N1 exhaust for my FA5, which would be made for an FD2. They are very similar but still something may be different, just wondering what.
Thanks in advance.

 

i have a custom b pipe, since stock doesn't fit

 

SPOON Sports does NOT make any products for FG2s simply because Honda does not produce FG2s in Japan. My FG2 racecar is sponsored by OPAK Racing (Spoon Sports US) and the only way to put on a N1 for DC5 is to take the rear section and make custom B-Pipes and custom pipe to go over the axle. Basically you will only be using the N1 muffler.

 

sounds good.

 

sounds pretty sick dude. nice job! a little loud for my tastes, but that just me.
