well the car is forsale, but i would like to get the car running 100% if the time allows. i may be going home in a few weeks and figured i'd replace the oily cat, exhaust, and muffler (from the previous blown turbo) so that i can take it for a drive without a smoke screen. I know the exhaust is oval/canister shaped so i figured i'd just get a magnaflow to replace it, and since i have the aftermarket bumper with exhaust cutout, maybe get a nice dual exhaust tip as well. pic of bumper for reference

What are the dimensions of the stock exhaust?

Side note. If i were to put one of the GT style mufflers on it would it ruin the car? pic for reference

It is just an aftermarket piece. I don't think anyone has identified the maker from a previous post.

Fart cans should only be put on Hondas with plastic hubcaps or they won't allow maximum performance. With a cutout that wide, I'd look for a side-by-side tip to take up the space.

I have a dual tip glass pack muffler that looks like a stock muffler. Im building a side exit exhaust so Ill be getting rid of it. Gonna be about 2 weeks though.

Id bet a stock shadow/lancer turbo muffler would fit that hole perfectly :)

Mufflers should have the same inlet as outlet or its just rice appeal.
