Page 7/8 should give some ideas on how to make a X-pipe work with a Tubular Trans member.
Only the posts by Mr. Buick (magnum) though.

pretty sweet...but thats on a premade aftermarket piece
if i make one myself i can integrate small bends in it and tuck the exhaust even better..
still looks great on his though, but were doing a stock orientation exhaust anyways.

Cool deal, I like the benefits from the X-pipe a little better though. But it does look alot cleaner with that Tubular piece.... cuz that stock one is ******* HUGE! i was under there today...... and damn.

Remove the spare and rear seats is 110lbs.
Run lightweight drag rims with et streets is about 70lbs.
Cut weight down to 185 will loose 30lbs.
that's 400lbs right there for **** sake! lol 0.40

lol i used the "is this the 5 0'clock free crack giveaway" line in a thread once...i think like one person got it...
civics are fun to drive....the boosted ones are pretty gay on the street....we did a K series ITB'ed stroker mated to a D series tranny in my buddies 86 hatch...that thing used to rip asphalt man...running a 24.5inch slick and it was still hard to hook that thing on the street...wrecked it before it ever got to the track....10 second car for sure...didnt work as good on the street but still bucked out hard for being a FF car...would launch on STIs all day...
super gutted and a welded diff...it was only fun going straight...haha
im gonna yank out the motor from my crashed honda for the heart of a sand rail im building...went and bought a gang of 1/8th inch steel plate for the body today....i just need to get the bar stock now to start making the frame...its just so hard to decide between round and boxed tubing....
