xforce twinloop on EG

[will13]

hi all, has anyone managed to fit the revised edition s12 twinloop muffler on an EG?

If so, share your experiences because I've been told by 3 different places that its not going to fit...

[will13]

bump...anyone?

[will13]

is there no one?

[dumped echo]

Not sure about this revised edition you speak of...but i have some kind of twin loop that will fit.
Rip out the muffler you have on the car atm and dummy the twinloop up there to check.
If you havn't bought it yet then maybe post up the dimentions for someone to be more helpful

[will13]

I've already bought it...getting it put on next week, il get some pics up to show people what i mean...theres going to be some custom work to get it done though.

ummm.. the S12 on an EG or DC (and most probably EK) will fit not very nicely I think because the tip is too long. But slightly off topic for future reference it will sit very nicely in a coupe shape such as an EM1 and try bring it to haks at performance exhaust. He's experienced in our cars with twinloops etc

[Frankie]

yeh i got a twin loop in my EK and it just fit in there because i got a sway bar he had to modify the loop pipe to make it fit properly

[DC4Integra98]

you will need to shave off the tip.

It is very long and will not sit flush.. even on my teg

[Frankie]

i changed that mofo tip and but a smaller one looks beter

[will13]

Yeah, im getting the tip brought back own by about 2 - 3 inches and looks like im going to have to rotate it because the offset isnt right? It's gonna be touch and go coz its already hitting my sway bar lol

[cnez]

howd u go with putting on the s12 onto your eg? update?

[will13]

Havn't had time (or money ) but im going to get quoted up for a stainless catback system and have the twinloop fitted at the same time. Going to see the guy on friday so it should be all done within the next 2 weeks...slow going...but I'll update with pics as soon as it's done.

[will13]

Ok so i've had the twinloop held up under the car...turns out it fits but its very tight, doesnt line up properly, and bumps my swaybar.

so, im wondering if anyone can tell me if the s10 twinloop will fit on an EG?

The s12 is up for sale if anyone wants it...

[cnez]

yeh i got a s10 in at garage. fits perfectly, just get it welded so its a bolt on. unfortunately mines got a rattling sound cuz of the baffle.

[will13]

what do you mean "cuz of the baffle" ?

[NightKids]

My s10 fits perfectly, it's the revised version so shorter tip.

[cnez]

Wouldve been an improper welding job done by xforce inside the muffler I guess. So part of the baffle is loose and rattling. It makes rattling noises around 1500rpm. There should b a warranty offered but since I got it off a mate they won't allow.

But yeh, s10 fits perfectly. Shame the s12 can't go on.

[will13]

ah ok then. looks like il have to find an s10, i wonder if felix's page is up to date...

[delsol9000rpms]

s12 twinloop can ft an eg civic.... just make sure you take it to an exhaust shop that knows what they are doing...It will take some fiddling with to get it to sit coreectly and not hit anything but its been done... If they say they cant do it then i guess you should reconsider where your gonna get it fitted...

My cuzin has an s12 twinloop on his eg civic which has ITR Control arms which are bigger then standard and it doesnt have troubles...

[will13]

yeh thats the problem, about 5 different places have sed that they cant do it. i have dc2r control arms but theyre not on the car yet...

Still, if i can find a good s10 for a good price, it will save me the hassle of all the extra 'fiddling'

[Frankie]

i don thtink my make s10 anymore might need to find one second hand

[will13]

yeah thats what im hunting around for...

[anfo2gig]

When i owned an eg i had my s12 fitted (axleback) nicely, it was done by Hak at performance exhaust.
Very good job by him.

[will13]

hmm probably not an option for me if its more than 2 hours drive from newcastle lol

[will13]

good news....felix is stocking up on s10 twinloops in september!
