HKS 01-03 Honda Civic EX/DX/LX Hi-Power Exhaust (Rear Section)

HKS is a well-known name in the performance automotive world, often associated with high-quality engine components and exhaust systems. This Hi-Power cat-back exhaust system is designed specifically for the 2001-2003 Honda Civic EX, DX, and LX models, focusing on improving the vehicle's exhaust flow and producing a more engaging sound.

This rear section of the exhaust system is constructed from SUS304 stainless steel, a material chosen for its strength and resistance to corrosion, which is important for longevity under the vehicle. The design aims to reduce backpressure compared to the stock exhaust, which can lead to a more responsive feel from the engine. The muffler features a large-diameter core and a straight-through design to maximize exhaust gas flow. This setup is intended to give your Civic a sportier exhaust note that is noticeable but not overly aggressive for daily driving.

Installation of this cat-back system typically involves removing the factory rear muffler and exhaust pipe section and replacing it with the HKS components. It's designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, meaning no welding or cutting is usually required, making the installation process more straightforward. This part is the rear section only, meaning it connects to your existing mid-pipe. Ensure your current mid-pipe is in good condition before installation.
