Recently a Civic Type R “FK8” exhaust popped up locally and it caught my attention as I wondered how it would sound/fit on my wife’s 2017 Civic Sport 6 speed.
I researched and found a few that had done it but only has testimonials on how it sounded after installation.
I was able to pick it up for a fair price and figured I’d share the result and post some videos. Now you’ll probably have to have a set of headphones on to really catch the sound result. It does have a more deeper tone at lower rpms, and now has a more distinct “vacuum” sound that these cars are known for.
As for as installation, it was a direct bolt on. I did have to trim a small part of the rear trim valance to accommodate the “3” tips. But other than that it was was straight forward. For what I picked it up for, I’m satisfied with the result in both the sound and appearance.
