This DIY exhaust kit is SpeedFactory's answer. The hard parts, the bends and the routing, are already done. You supply the muffler and the welds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It Is and Why It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit is prefabricated T304 stainless steel tubing, mandrel bent so the pipe keeps its full 3 inch diameter through every bend instead of crushing down the way cheap press-bent tube does. The sections follow the OEM exhaust path on the most common FWD Honda and Acura chassis, so the finished system tucks where the factory system did instead of hanging below the rear beam waiting for a speed bump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design detail that separates this from generic pipe kits is the joint system. Each section has extra deep 5 inch slip joints, which gives you a big range of adjustment to position everything exactly where you want it. Then you weld the joints in final position. No flanges, no band clamps, which means none of the shifting, rattling, and slow leaks that clamped systems develop after a year of heat cycles. You also get five 3\/8 inch stainless hangers fitted with oversized 1\/2 inch stainless sleeves that grip your OEM rubber insulators tighter than the factory hangers did, so the finished system stays planted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuffler choice is yours. The kit accepts any muffler or resonator with center inlet and center outlet, which covers most of the popular race and street units, so the same kit builds a quiet street setup with a resonator and chambered muffler or a straight-through race system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne honest sizing note: 3 inch is the right pipe for boosted builds and serious all-motor power. If you're running a bolt-on NA B or D series, a full 3 inch system is more exhaust than the engine can use and you'll give up some low-end torque for nothing. Turbo EG, EK, and DC2 builds are exactly who this kit is for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eT304 stainless steel, mandrel bent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoint system\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 inch deep slip joints, weld in final position\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHangers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(5) 3\/8 inch stainless with 1\/2 inch oversized sleeves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMuffler compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAny center inlet \/ center outlet muffler or resonator (not included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRouting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFollows OEM exhaust path\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSFR-04-200 (Mfg SF-04-200)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c!-- FITMENT DISCREPANCY: structured fitmentsList holds only make-level Honda\/Acura rows; the applications below come from fitmentNotesHTML and are corroborated by Real Street Performance's listing.

Two fitment caveats worth knowing up front: aftermarket rear sway bars and rear subframe braces can interfere with the factory routing path in some cases, and since every car and setup differs, some cutting, fitting, and welding is part of the deal on any custom exhaust. That's the nature of the product, not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat to Know Before You Buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou need a welder, or a buddy with one. This is a weld-together kit, not a bolt-together system, and that's exactly why the finished product is better than a clamped catalog exhaust. The smart workflow: hang everything loose on the slip joints, set your muffler and tip position, tack weld the joints in place on the car, then pull the system and finish-weld it on the bench. The 5 inch joint depth is what makes that adjustability possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBudget for the muffler and resonator separately since neither is included. If you're going the race route, SpeedFactory's own LT-5 muffler is the natural pairing; for street builds, a resonator mid-pipe plus a quality chambered muffler keeps a 3 inch system livable. Either way you're building exactly the system your car needs instead of settling for whatever a catalog cat-back decided for you, and for a boosted build, that flexibility is the whole point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYears\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrims\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1992-2000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda Civic (EG, EK)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll: CX, VX, DX, LX, HX, EX, Si, coupe\/sedan\/hatch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1994-2001\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcura Integra (DC2, DB8)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll: RS, LS, SE, GS, GS-R, Type R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"SpeedFactory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45917748166690,"sku":"SFR-04-200","price":337.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/SFR-04-200_radz.jpg?v=1783542257","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/speedfactory-exhaust-piping-kit-cat-back-3inch","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
