So ... I'm a big fan for Invidia in terms of sound, quality, and price. But when I saw the exhaust they had for the Si coupe, I wasn't content with they're choice to go with the 3 tip design like the Type R.
I tried looking for an alternative brand, but honestly nothing compares like Invidia. The HKS exhaust came REAL close in terms of sound, but the piping size was my only concern. I wasn't too sure if the piping diameter has big effect on gains after a tune, but regardless I had go with Invidia. (blame my stuborness)
Then I remember seeing a thread not to long ago of a Type R exhaust modifies onto an Si coupe .... so I thought maybe it could be the same with the Civic hatch exhaust. Boy was I right!
In the end, I went and got mee self an Invidia R400 exhaust for the Civic Hatch with a DUAL tip design!!
Took it to a local muffler shop to get it installed and surprisingly everything bolted up just fine. (with the exception of relocating and welding hangers onto the exhaust)

The only problem I stumbled upon was the exhaust tip portion. It was a bit shorter to my liking, so I got it extended ~3" out from the back of the mufflers. I also got the side brackets cut off so it would clear the undertray.
Finally, I was able to drive off within 1.5 hours.
Here's an exhaust clip after the install ....
