Default RSX-S muffler on 6th gen?

Will it fit? I already bought my TL-S mufflers, but im just curious....Anyone also know the difference in sound b/t the TL-S and RSX-S?

kind of a weird question to ask after you bought the mufflers already......
btw.....definitely let me know how those mufflers sound on your car.

I want to do a dual setup and all that stuff about backpressure I dont believe it.
....Plus my ride i purely for show not go. ( not show yet. )

you can get it to fit, but it'll take some custom work. also, you'll have to hang it low. the RSX-S exhaust can is pretty damn big.

Getting these mufflers is purely cosmetic. You're not going to hear anything.

Trust me.

actually, you will hear something, noise. if you split the pipes correctly they you could even retain any torque lost or gain hp/tq if you do extensive motor work. but unfortunatly i went custom TL-S on my 5th gen and sometimes when i press the throttle too hard i get alot of raspy noise. i'm concidering selling it for a Apex'I WSII full exhaust though

I'd just get a full catback...if you're concerned about sound get a Apexi WS.

those worried about backpressure at higher rpm's should just get a qtec cutoff, that way anytime you feel like pushing it at the track(heh) you can just drop the cat from the equation, allieveiating even bad breathing problems from the cars....awkward... exhaust
