first problem: you gotta put the exhaust on the car!

haha...anyways. i don't think it goes too well with rear swaybars. unless you wanna reweld your hangers, i'd try using different length hanger bushings.

i had to go to the muffler shop (apexi ws) and they weld a piece of metal to the bpipe and then they screwed the metal to the bottom of my car. that helped the pipe from hitting the heat shield and it made the pipe higher. before that, the pipe was about 2 inches from the ground and it was scraping the road like crazy, also my car was vibrating as well. but that trip to the muffler shop took care of the problem. (it was in my eg with a b16a) hope this helps

 

Ya thanks man but i thought this system was designed for the eg hatch and you have to ******* do this im so pissed 7 hours later today i gave up we tried switching the pipes around cause we thougt the s pipe was wrong nope it was still low the hangers are on and its like a inch from the ground then we sit in it and it sits on the ground i cant even drive this Apexi so far is a shitty design i wasted my 450 dollars damn

 

isn't it designed for a hatch wit a dseries motor? if you have a swap, won't you run into a little problem as this? just asking, i don't know about this exh system.

 

well if that is the case i would be good the package says 92-95 with d16 motor and this what i have so i dont know

 

if you have a hi-flow cat with a slip flange, you might have the pipe right after the cat upside down. when i first put this exhaust on my car i put the pipe upside down and i had a hard time fitting everything else up and the piping sat really low. but i flipped the pipe around and then it fit-up perfect. (the hangers on the pipe is supposed to shoot down not up)

 

you serious they are not supposed to go up?

just installed my ws on my eg with a swap this week..the resignator with hangers should be down. ..i had some major rattling issues with the heat sheild closest to the gas tank, but after ajusting the piping and using a bit of wire to tie the heat sheild back it fits perfect...i'm very happy with the sound...and after having the stock piping with my swap the power increase is substantial

 

Well thanks guys Bizump to the top

Exactly,did the same tihng then looked at it and was like,"opps" flipped it over,ground the first hanger from the can off and MIG'ed it a little higher so the piping hung about a half an inch lower (was rattling on heatshield) then bent the can hangers out so it came down just a hair,fits perfectly now.

 

so you bent the hangers on the apexi? and not the chasis right?

 

I had no problem on my hatch with B18C + 4-1 header + 2.5" honda oem cat. then later on my ZC sohc vtec, then for few days with the B20B. I do have a ITR sway bar and no rubbing has occured anywhere. it could be because I am using JDM cats with small extension made to equal the lenght of the USDM cat.

actually I bent both,but not a lot,just enough to get it down about a half an inch

 

Well thanks guys after all this i got it to fit i need to get the hangers bent but other than that its good but its hanging a little low but it will have to do

thanks honda-tech

 

mine fit well.. just was hitting the gas tank.. and the stock sway bar was rubbing it also...
padded with rubber... and filed down the bolt on the sway bar mount that was rubbing and it went away

 

Do you have the mid pipe upsidedown?It should hang very tight to the underside of the car.
