Hey everyone. This is my first post so I hope it's in the appropriate category. I wanted to make a quick post for those who are indecisive about which exhaust to get for their Civic Hatchback Sport. I'm the type of person to spend weeks or sometimes months looking at different options for what I want to get. I'd been looking at getting an exhaust for the better half of a year but couldn't decide which one. Videos don't do exhausts much justice, so that made choosing harder. Everyone seems to get the Greddy, but I didn't want to be like everyone else. I had it narrowed down to 2, and I'm so happy I chose this one. It's much louder than stock, but not in an obnoxious way. You'll definitely hear it while driving, especially on WOT, but it's very tame while doing normal driving around town. Next to no drone unless you're cruising at 3-5k rpms, even then it's barely noticeable if you're listening to music like most people do. I've done quite a bit to my car, and this exhaust has made me smile more than anything else. I had a co-worker install it for me at work and ended up staying after we closed for an hour, just driving it around the building, as shown here, getting different videos of it. I go out of my way to drive through tunnels and always try to park in parking garages now, also shown here. If you're looking at getting an exhaust I highly recommend this one. It may not be the cheapest option out there, but there are more expensive and this one was definitely worth every penny.

Nice writeup, Borla is definitely nice for the money, + the million mile warranty.

Have these in stock for anyone interested.

Do we know which kind of their muffler they use because online I see a bunch of just borla mufflers

Hey man, I was wondering if you ever did anything with this. I wanted to build my own Borla exhaust with a mufflers and some carbon tips, but I haven't been able to find any examples.

I was thinking about doing the same awhile back but I did not think it would make too much of a difference in sound. I don't think you need to make any modifications to fit an FK7. From what I have heard , the hangers are in the same spot. Let me know how it goes.

the invidia r400 is the exhaust, youll have to bring your fk7 front pipe to a welder and switch the end piece to work. and you are correct hangers are in the same spot.
