not sure about headers on assi ep3/dc5...the rear ends of the dc5 are longer than the ep3 so most of the systems stick out the back a lot....

Yes, but as I've learned you can make almost anything work with a little ingenuity.

Word, I looked into this before because I was going to get the Buddy Club Spec II but it's made for the DC5 and not the EP3 so I looked around and I guess the axle back needs a little trimming and re-welding but for the most part it fits pretty decent. I never ended up doing it so I don't know from personal experience but I do know that it will need a little work after researching up on it.

The headers and midpipe do but that's about it.

i also wanted to do this to my ep3. since the only 3in exhaust i could find is the kteller piping i didnt really want to go through the trouble of welding this welding that and finding resonators and bla bla bla! i decided to just get either the skunk2 mega power r 76mm or the thermal 76inch exhaust. if all i have to do is chop a lil off and weld it back up that sounds a hell of a lot better! the only thing i will have to worry about now if finding a 3in test pipe! peak boost has one but it looks weird. it has no flanges!?

so has any one ever put an rsx-s exhaust on thier ep3?
