Default B-Pipe questions. Yes, I already googled them.

On the FAQ's, there is a recommendation to just replace the OEM B-pipe on an EP3. Does any company make just the B-pipe? Or will I have to trust a muffler shop to weld in a new piece?

I would love to be able to remove it if I don't like it, and if it were the same length with the same flanges, it would be perfect... not to mention, cops in this area will pull you over if you breathe wrong, let alone if they can hear your exhaust.

you could get the 05+ rsx b-pipe and have a muffler shop chop off the necessary length.

What about the flanges? Doesn't that still need to be welded if I chop another pipe?

No, you just need to shorten the RSX midpipe by 2-3 inches. I found a T1R midpipe for my car and it's perfect, sounds great and bolts in with no problems whatsoever. Good luck finding one though, they're discontinued.

There is this one... http://www.showstoppersusa.com/produ...oducts_id=1255

It's Megan, so I'm not sure on quality. My mid-pipe only cost 109 after tax to have made/installed at a muffler shop.
