Anyone every try putting one on a ek???? did it fit??

 

nope

well i take that back. anything will fit with a little or a lotta work.

 

it will fit, but you'll need to cut the stock B-pipe and put on some custom hangers for it...

 

isnt it a different length to the end of the car. i held my buddies under my car and it fell short. it dumped under right under the tires.

sorry for the misinfo if im wrong

 

after all the work of getting it to fix, would it even be worth it? and why do you need duals? to fill both exhaust spots on your black widow rear bumper?

 

heheheheheh

 

It's a Civic. Anything will fit with some cutting. I have many a jerry rigged mod on my hatch.

 

lol, maybe he means just one of the mufflers... they're not too bad a design.

 

yah i'm only planning on putting on 1 muffler.....since it has a twin loop/lube design like the mugen mufflers

 

just wanted to bring it back from the dead, in case anyone has tried this

 

anyone...ok

 

I want to bring this back from the dead now cause I have an s2000 muffler in my room right now and need some help on mounting it to my 1996 Civic hatch. Please help if you have any information. My questions are, I was looking at these pictures and after test fitting I noticed that the muffler will not clear the gas tank. Is that true? I noticed that in the pictures it looks like the muffler is tilted to avoid this problem. Is that also true? Anybody who actually did this on a EK civic PLEASE HELP!!!

Here are the pictures that it will fit. My question is exactly how?




I'm told this car belongs to Trevor. If he is on this board, can you please help me

 

That car used to belong to user 'YumVTEC'. Drop him a PM. I'm sure he just used custom piping and had the muffler welded on.

Happy to help.

 

i think these "will it fit" questions can all be easily answered by one phrase:

have you ever seen monster garage?

Yes it can be done...

 

i really wanna know how you make it fit because i'd love to do it on my ek.

well, if you end up doing it, tell us about it.

 

my girlfriends brother put an s2000 muffler on his EK.. it was a little long, so they angled it slightly..and the rest of the piping was compress bent.

Thats what I wanted to know. I test fitted it and I saw that the over shape of the exhaust was too wide and was hitting the gas tank. I was wondering if you just angle it, but you just answered my question. Thanks

BTW, if anybody has close up pictures of how to mount the exhaust, that would like make light come from the sky and shine in my face

But until then, I'll just go in there and try to explain to the down south muffler peoples how to do it and hope they don't destroy my car

 

just have an exhuast shop do it for you if you're dead set on it. the shop i used had to cut the inlet piping off the muffler all the way up to about 1" away from the back of the muffler, then weld on new stuff.

i do *NOT* recommend putting a single s2k muffler on anyone's b-series swapped civic because for me it totally killed my top end, and was way too restrictive. yes, it was very quiet compared to the fart can i had originally on my b18c5 ek, but it definitely made me slower. the reason is that a single s2k muffler is not designed to flow as much HP as a b-series motor puts out. think about it, the s2k itself has two of the same mufflers and needs both of them to be able to flow 240hp (crank). to me that would go to say that one of the mufflers is only good for about 120hp (again, at the crank) worth of flow.

you'd be much better off getting a stock ITR muffler or an RSX muffler for that matter.

 

gotcha, thanks

 

Not an S2000, but a RSX Type S muffler on my car. The S2000 and the RSX Type S muffflers are the same except the S2000 comes with an extra one. The hangers and the axleback needs to be modified.

 

i think the RSX muffler flows better internally as well. my friend has an rsx type-s muffler available for sale if anyone is interested. PM him, his username is shivic.

 

Alright, I just got back from the muffler shop from getting the s2000 exhaust installed on my 96 civic dx hatch. Well, after tilting the thing a little and like 20 minutes and explaining to the muffler guy about how to make it fit just right and whey I was installing this thing in the first place cause he had "Fast and Furious" pipes he could put on instead. Well, the sound is really quit, though I havn't gone full open throttle yet. But I did feel like I gained in the low end, but the high end still feels about the same, but all in all, I am very happy. Once I get hold of a digital camera, I'll try to post pictures.

Well, I think thats everything. Hopefully when I drop the car in the next week, there will be no clearance issues with the axle and the rear lower control arm.

Thanks everyone for the help.
