That's what I thought also but I went to a shop yesterday and they are trying to say it won't work or at least work coming it the stock exhaust cut out in the bumper because since the.canister is so big that it will hit the floor of the trunk so I'm trying to confirm if anyone else has one on their sedan worst case scenario I'll just have to cut the hole in the bumper for the exhaust tip more toward the passenger side

So does anyone have this muffler on a sedan and what did u do?

ok didn't think of fitmeant thought you wanted to know if the piping was the same. The piping can be bent you know does the place you had try it do custom bending ? if not take it to a place that does it can be made to fit without having to cut you'r bumper.

no where in my post does it say the word piping i asked if anyone has done it and if they ran into any issues and yes the shop i went to does custom piping and from what they were trying to say is that from the tip to exit out the oem location wont work because the canister/pan will hit the floor of the trunk but im unsure how true this actuall is since they didnt even try they assumed just by looking at it

so any information from someone who actually has a rsx-s muffler on a eg sedan and if it makes any difference its a 05-06 spec muffler

Why you would go out of your way to put an RSX muffler on your car is beyond me...

Well I hate how the stock muffler looks and id rather have a cost efficient quite exhaust over some cheap loud n1 style muffler and Rsx-s exhaust has a similar look to a ws2,rs-r,sp2 but cheaper and it's 2.1" piping which is a small upgrade from the 1.75" stock size so mostly it cosmetically looks better it's y plus I got it dirt cheap

Have you ever seen what the inside of an RSX muffler looks like?

Its literally a musical instrument... So you can remove what I highlighted from the equation.


So essentially, your swapping a stock muffler for a "different" stock muffler..

Sure it looks a bit beefier, but you could just move back your stock muffler and weld a tip on it...


I'm getting the impression you've got the mod bug and you think your going to get some sort of HP improvement..

Honestly I could care less about HP seeing as it's a stock d15 nonvtec this is for my girlfriends daily I drive a 2000 prelude 2nd I'm trying to see if any one has gotten one.to fit because if not it will be going for sale to get it out of my garage

^Neat cut-away. You might as well weld a peice of straight pipe on the end...cheaper then what you're trying to do.

just goes to show you how restrictive oem mufflers really are, especially the 06+ si and rsx ones. I am considering getting a noir or a ws2

^^ I was just going to post that. If you seen it on a coupe why would it not work on a sedan seeing as companies like Apexi make a big canister WS2 to fit the sedan and coupe.

Just go to a different shop as they dont want to be bothered with your business.
