i've been looking for mandrel bends and exhaust flanges on the web and i came across a site that sold a kit for civics that was a mandrel bent 2.5" cat to muffler system for around $100... you would need to have it welded in with hangers (and add flanges if you wanted.) the problem is i can't remember the URL... it's out there though, if you feel like searching for it.

If you are looking for a quality exhaust that will actually add HP then an ebay exhaust is out of the question. To point you in the right direction, I suggest a cat-back exhaust system like the Skunk2 Megapower exhaust. It'll run you about $500 -$600 depending on shipping but every dollar goes towards helping your car make more hp rather then making more noise.
