Below is everything i did in case you are thinking about adding this to your EX.

1.) Flowmaster DBX https://www.summitracing.com/parts/flo-12014310
2.) two black exhaust tips https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-691208

Cut out resonator and replaced with DBX muffler. Cut both mufflers out and added pipe to keep dual look. Tried to keep as much of stock piping as possible. Once it was all done i painted rest of the pipe matte black. Cost of install $80

Nice I wanted to do something similar to my LX. I was hoping they put out a mod for this. I believe I would also need a new diffuser.

Posting so I can listen to this later.

2.0 EX? Also assuming stock downpipe, no tune, or intake?

How did they handle the hangers on the left side? I'm assuming since the Touring has optional dual exhaust, there are preexisting hangers - are the grommets in place? Or did they have to fab up the hangers themselves? Anyway we can get a closer shot of that?

I did it to my 2018 Hatchback EX. but with all new piping.

2.5" from catback
2.25" after Y pipe
2.5 in & out Flowmaster DBX
3" outlet tips

It sounded completely different after about an hour of driving with the new exhaust. I was disappointed when it was first started up but much happier after a bit of breaking into.

Just updated the video and added a cold startup clip at the very end!
