Look how short the tip is in the pic. A Civic tip/tailpipe is alot longer. It would have to be lengthened a little or it will tuck under the bumper instead of flush with it. You could always buy a rusty beat-up Teg muffler just to test fit.

I thought he just had the axleback modded to fit. I don't thin having the axleback will make a difference in sound.

WOW, the itr muffler looks great! So if it is too short for civic sedans and coupes, does that mean it should fit the hatchbacks perfectly?

That pic is of a Hatch. Just do a search on H-T. There are tones of photos there.

As for the RSR and WS exhauts, Ive read reviews that the RSR is not stainless steel and rusts badly in snow/salt conditions. The WSII is sll stainless steel but Ive hear it has fitment issues with the civic. Namely the resonator hangs low and scrapes sometimes, the pipe rattles on the fuel tank etc. Mind you these can be solved with the addition of additional hangers, but it's just something to look out for.

WSII is only stainless at the muffler and tip. The rest is ceramic coated. My resonator did scrape a bit, but hey, it's a lowered car, what do you expect? No rattling experienced.

I understand scraping the bumper, or fenders when lowered...but that last place i'd suspect to scrape would be the bottom of my car.
I guess that's the price you pay for a quiet exhaust, a large resonator that scrapes.
