Here's the situation. I have a 96 Hx and I ordered the Skunk2 cat-back for a 92-00 Ex. I figured it wouldn't fit right and I was correct. The exhaust I got came with a 3-bolt flange on the pipe w/ the resonator to hook up, and my Hx has a 2-bolt setup. To my question, before I order an Ex header and cat, do the Ex's have a 3-bolt flange to connect the pipe to? I just want to make sure the exhaust that came is right, and the Ex would have a 3-bolt connector to the cat. TIA

 

92-95 ex's have a 3 bolts on the exhaust side and 2 on the header/manifold side cat... so yes... If I understood your question correctly.

 

my header is a 2 bolt setup. 97 ex. but my cat, w/ the custom piping, doesn't have a flange, so i couldn't tell ya. don't know if it helped any.

 

Just go down to a muffler shop and have it welded on, should be cheaper then buy a ex header.
