I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I've actually been thinking of getting an Apexi universal N1 muffler and having a GOOD muffler shop put it on, but I have three requirements if I was to do that;

1. All piping must be mandrel bent

2. It must be routed under the LCA, like the N1 catback.

3. It must exit in the stock CRX location (driver's side) so that it lines up with the bumper's exhaust cutout.

This presents a challenge. I figure the reason the exhaust, when it gets back to the gas tank, cuts to the passenger side is to avoid the exhaust and the filler neck being on the same side. I wonder if there is even enough room.

you could always get an EDM crx bumper with the exhaust cutout on the right. i think shipping would be KILLER, though. ask bart aka b16a1 what he can do, as he's parting out his old EDM rex. :)

EDM bumpers have a right side exhaust cutout?? I never knew this...

I'm not serious enough at this point to actually buy another bumper though. But hey, learned something new today!!

Yes, the gas filler neck. I mean where the exhaust comes next to the gas tank, not at the tip.
