you can do that or you could by mandrel bent tubing and weld it your self if you have access to a welder.
I use this company for pre-bent ready to weld piping decently price and about the 60 bucks for shipping about same price your looking at with alot better grade of steel then the cheap ebay steel that loves to crack.. just my 2Cents id pay for this and do it once then spend twice as much money and do it 2 times.

I have that ebay exhaust sitting in my garage.
It worked fine. Looked OK... didnt sound too raspy or anything.
Only thing i had to do was extend the end of my cat to make it reach.
they sent me an exhaust for a crx.

Yea that exhaust doesnt look that bad actually. I had bought a TSUDO catback off ebay and it hung way to low. Did yours do that?

Just get an es tunning muffler they go for $100. And then go to a muffler shop ask them for 2.25 piping and install the muffler all under $200 and they sound good. No loud raspy sound. Just a good low tone. Thats what im doing. The 2.25 piping is running me $75 & the muffler $100. I have always used these nufflers on all my hatches with d16z6, and b16s.

if you search on ebay some more i'm pretty sure you'll find a complete catback for about 115-120 american dollars
those catbacks are Chinese
my little brother has one on his BMW euro imported M5
he's had it for years with no problems
I have an Apexi on my crx we got these about a month or so apart about 4 or 5 years ago
the only thing I see different is the badge
both are quiet, well made and have lasted more time than I thought they would


buy the ebay one

ebay is crap IMO. I think sometimes it works for some people but I have bought a lot of stuff off ebay hoping to finally get a break but it is always bad. I bought a header and full N1 exhaust off of ebay and ended up having to spend 200 more dollars just to get the exhaust to fit right and to replace the muffler.

I also bought some D/S disk rotors which ended up being the wrong size then I had to spend 60 more just to ship them back.

too many bad experiences on ebay. Save your money and go to an exhaust shop.
