ok so obviously im going to have to upgrade my stock 95 civic 4dr exhaust to match my 2.5" jdm itr exhaust manifold once i swap. will the rest of the jdm integra type r exhaust sytem match up with my car? how much fabricating would be involved to make it work? does any company out there make a simple bolt on system? i really dont want to have to get all custom and have pipes bent, more of a trust issue i guess...

any input is greatly appreciated

 

The rest of the system will fit but you'll need to lengthen the exhaust tip as the stock muffler will be sitting in just under the bumper on your car.

 

ok so all the hangers will match up alright and it wont be hanging down or anything sloppy?

and my collector is 2.5" but after the cat does it drop down to 2.35"? most of the jdm itr catbacks ive seen for sale boast 2.35" piping... i thought that was usdm dimensions..

example: http://passwordjdm.com/JDM-ITR-Cat-B...P1689C210.aspx

p.s. will i pass us/canada emissions with jdm itr cat (the small one)?

 

It should sit like a factory exhaust does. I do believe it necks down after the cat to the 2.35 size. I don't know if it's capable of passing the emission tests or not. I guess it depends on how stringent the rules are.

 

thanks for help, that would make sense based on my search results.. so a usdm type r cat back should fit the same, maybe with some compensation for the larger cat? more research i guess... im moving to vancouver, bc in july but my inspection for the us (texas) is good for another 10 months. being from canada do you know anything aout BCs emissions policy? i know theyre quite eco-friendly...

 

and what is this "b-pipe"?!?!?

from cat to axle?

 

I live in Nova Scotia which is at the other end of the country so I'm not too familiar with BC's emission laws but I would imagine you could find that info online fairly easily. Yes, the "B" pipe goes from the cat back to the axle. You'll like it there, it's a beautiful province that we often call "The Canadian California".

 

A b-pipe is the tube between your header and your cat (assuming you have a 2-piece header)

no it isn't.

 

Right you are. I was referring to the down pipe. My brain fart. Back to our scheduled programing.
