Icon2 Does RSX type-S header fit an 06 SI?

I have a friend that totaled his RSX type-S, and we were gonna strip some parts from it before we give it up to insurance. He plans to get an 09 SI, and wanna know if that aftermarket header would fit the SI. Thanks

Says the guy who offers no answer.

OP... the path of the exhaust on the type S is different than that of the Si's, although I think it would bolt onto the motor if you had it out of the car...lol. So...NO, without serious modification, a header designed for a Type S will not fit your Si.

The spacing behind the motor is different between the two engine bays, so no. Like fiji said, I'd imagine that they would bolt on no problem, but as for pipe spacing it just would not fit.
