Yo. I've got a 99 Civic DX Hatch that i've completely overhauled. I've just installed an authentic B16B engine. It's great! I'll post pictures in the future. Right now i've got a really irritating problem, and was wondering if anyone else has run into this. i just got my Magnaflow exhaust for a Civic HB. The test pipe is set to mount to the downpipe on the DX engine. 1 3/4" ID. The stock downpipe on the B16B has a 2 1/4" pipe, and the crush gasket is 3 1/8" around at it's largest point. I knew this was going to be a problem, so i was planning to custom fabricate a test pipe with a larger flange, but I can't even find a flange for it. Magnaflow has no idea what i'm talking about, they don't even acknowledge that the Type R exists. Does anyone have any ideas, or know where i can get a J Spec test pipe that will fit the Magnaflow 2 1/4" exhaust?
