Exhaust+Header recommendation for a DC2R?

[202690]

I'll just post here instead of starting new thread - and i'm sorry if it's covered before!

would i be able to do cat back say 2.5 inch and leave the cat and header till another time (i.e. when i'm not broke lol)
or would i have to do it all in one go when upsizing the diamter of the exhaust.
do you guys recomment getting something branded or exhaust shop to whip something up for me??

i've got the spoon street muffler + bpipe and it sound great..! it kinda sound like mugen sound even better/louder when hit vtec.

I recommend Fujitsubo, 5-Zigen or RS*R for header.

Fujitsubo also does sweet cat-backs, like the Power Getter.

If you get a JDM branded exhaust, you will need to change your cat to either a JDM cat or custom cat.
The header you can leave stock.

If you get a custom exhaust, you won't need to change your cat.

That's correct.
The JDM DC2's had a shorter cat, so their catbacks were longer.
So you need to get a shorter cat to fit any JDM exhaust.

okay thanks! i might aswell just do the whole system from header to muffler becuase originally i thought the rm01a would bolt straight onto stock cat but now i have to change cat so mightswell do it all in one shot

if i were to buy this;

http://www.ebay.com/itm/98-99-00-01-...fa1654&vxp=mtr
which has inlet and outlet of 2.5" it would bolt directly to a 2.5" collector at the header and some sort of welding has to go on between the outlet and b-pipe??

essentially i would want to do header and cat at the same time but leave the old cat back for now..

Any cat converter is fine. Get an exhaust shop to fit it on, welding or attachment of flex pipes may be needed.
