The difference is in the length of the b-pipe. Hatch is longer.

depends on who makes the exhaust
some make the rear section shorter some, the midpipe
its only 4.5 inches difference so its not a big deal
you may have to move a couple hangers too

No hangers need to be moved. Just have the muffler shop extend or shorten the B pipe past the resonator right before it makes the bend to go under the pass. rear wheel. I had a Civic hb exhaust shortened to fit my CRX.
Just make sure they do a test fit, and check how it comes out on the back.
Mine was touching the rear bumper at first, and they to cut it and re-weld.
