Default Exhaust Buying Help (D to H series eventually)

Okay, I have a 93 DX coupe
my exhaust right now is rusted out after the cat i think, so its just a loud exhaust (no muffler)
I have an H22A and It will eventually get swapped in... but the problem is I dont want my loud civic pew pewing around. Its a d15b7.
So what I want to do is Buy a ~$100-$150 ebay exhaust system, but how hardwould it be to adapt it to my h22 when i swap it? Just get a shop to connect the downpipe to the existing ebay exhaust right?


Whats the power gain from a 2.5in exhaust to a 3in? would it be hurtful to the d series? but good for the h22?

i just dropped an h22 in my eg... i used 2.5 all the way through.. all u do is get the civic exaust pipes and mount ur header... from the H.. and look at the gap.. get a flex pipe or something in there to bridge it.. thats all.

i want to do this 'on the cheap' but not really


Okay, so i guess

A)Cheap ebay catback should be easily adapted to h series?
B)Horsepower gain on 3'' on and h22, or should i just go 2.5'', and is it too big for a d series stock?
oah and i plan on going low i guess, should i be looking into oval piping and a while custom exhaust after i get the h22 in and get downpipe or what? stock header is too big? Im thinking the koni/gc, and maybe even extended top hats...

damn i was trying to help. its not THAT expensive, you could get the ws2 muffler and run custom piping to be cheap.

You're funny
That is why i am selling Skunk2 pro-s coilovers, so i can either not put a suspension or put some nicer coils...

Okay, what about this 3" exhaust
IS THERE REALLY A DIFFERENCE ON AN h22, 3in or 2.5?
