Default Accord V6 exhaust piping size?

Does anyone on here know what size it is from the 4cyl. Im thinkin it's bigger but not so sure. I have a axle-back off a V6 and was wondering if it would fit the 4 banger piping without leaks. Anyone know?

I don't know about the sedan one but as for the coupe, you wouldn't have a problem with it. Underneath of both cars are the same. I have a friend who has a V6 and did a single muffler instead of dual. When I looked at his and compares it to mine, it looks exactly the same set up. Both V6 & 4 cylinders have a 60mm piping.

Thanks man. I was thinking they would be different because one is V6 and would need bigger piping. Im hoping everything will just bolt up.

if you are bolting up v6 piping to a 4 cylinder, (which uses two exhaust outlets) you will lose power due to lack of backpressure...just an fyi...

what if you block one of the exhuast and only use one and have the other one just for look? then no back pressure right? but does it bolt right on?

Yes I am a RICER, but im not using a full catback from a V6. I got a used axle back and was wondering if the AXLE back for the V6 will bolt up to the 4 banger, only from AXLE back.

Also another thing, if the V6 is that much bigger and causes me to lose back pressure, cant I just use it if im boosting???? Sleeper look?

i have a 4 cyl so if i get a v6 exhaust and block one of the muffler from the axle then it would be the same as a 4cyl exhaust?

reason why i ask is because i have an aftermarket exhaust and im tried of listening of the damn thing and want to go back to stock but then i didnt save my old one..
