Can I use my Accord/CL downpipe for the h22 swap?

I know I can use my cat, but can I use the downpipe without any problems? Thanks.

You sure about that?? I read in a Honda Tuning mag that said that the H22 and Accord downpipes are the same length. I don't think they are interchangeable though.

They dropped in an H22 into a 94 Accord and they said that they did not have to do any modifications to the cat or cat-back system to make it work.

even with the length not being an issue, the flanges dont line up, if u were to have a muffler shop cut off the stock flange and put a lude exhaust mani flange on it i guess u may get it to work, but why??? just pay $50 and get the downpipe from wherever u got ur swap, or just go ahead and get an aftermarket header right now (not dc)
