Default exhaust over left (driverside) rear LCA?

anyone try custom piping over the left lca instead of the right lca? or even straight back?

i looked at it just now and there's just as much room over the left lca as the right lca. if i can run a can style muff on the left...1. i wont have a low hanging muff, 2. i would have maximized flow, 3. it would still be on the left to match the bumper. only problem is that there is that the gas tank fill up pipe is there. i dont want to heat it up and cause a problem.

Maybe try wrapping the pipe with header tape.

Yes, I have a friend who had an exhaust made on his 2nd gen integra(similar exhaust set up as yours) and he had it rerouted to the driverside and under the control arm. No problems at all.

do not route it under, or you will have 1 banged up pipe, over the control arm is the safe way to go.
