[/URL][/IMG] Hi I was wondering if anyone can tell me is it normal for a spoon exhaust system to sit that far in.
I have a ek9 rx facelift model and the exhaust system is
Tegiwa manifold,spoon sports cat ,spoon b-pipe and spoon street exhaust the oem system had the tail pipe sitting a bit further out and was wondering if this is normal on the spoon systems don't know if the tegiwa manifold is shorter than the spoon maybe,measured the sports cat and it's the same size as the oem Honda cat

i have the same setup on my b swapped ej but with the n1 muffler but due to me using a dc2 decat mine sits the same,
maybe your sports cat is shorter than oem ?
 
Already checked the sports cat it's same length as the oem ,only thing I can think is the manifolds shorter or that backbox isn't for the ek9 ,
When I orderd the backbox from spoon sports it was a fresh load that they had made.
 
When I put the oem backbox back on the length was fine so have they made this shorter ? I've emailed spoon sports hopefully get a reply back soon
 
i couldn't tell you if i'm honest i've never seen a spoon street in person, but my gen 1 and 2 n1 were different in length
not sure if the street had the variation, just out of interest how much quiter is the street over the n1 if you know?' i cant get on track due to noice limit and thats while running the bung
 
I had the n1 on for 2weeks went deaf and decided enough was enough ended up selling it and getting the street and it's perfect gives a nice sound without that deafening loud drone I'm sure when I checked it was 94db I could make a video up let you hear the difference

If the OEM backbox sits properly then it suggests the Street backbox is the incorrect length
