Hi,
As the ***le says I need some help from accord CU2 owners.
My dilemma: for some time now I have been considering upgrading the exhaust system on my CU1. I have thought about the custom made route but they are either to cheap and the workman ship isn't very good or they are too expensive. Then I thought about getting a CAT back system but there are hardly any options for the CU1. Unlike the CU2 there are quite a few options. So then I started thinking would an exhaust for a CU2 fit on to a CU1.
So for a while I have been asking various people if they knew the answer to this question. Many people haven't got a clue, some people have said no and only a few have said yes.
The only difference that I can see is that the CU1 doesn't have the exhaust hangers on the left hand side as it is a single tail pipe design. I have looked at pics online and exhaust diagrams and the shape, size and bends look the same. I then contacted Hond-r and they said it is a similar case to that of the 7th Gen CL7/CL9. Apparently the exhausts are the same but one lacks the exhaust hangers to mount the second back box.
So with this is in mind I came across a company called Bastuck (www.bastuck.de) who produce a dual exhaust system which they say fits both the CU1 and CU2. But for it to fit the CU1 they sell with the kit two mounting brackets to fit the 2nd (left hand) back box.
At the moment I am still waiting to hear back from them as to how these are mounted to the underside of the car ? Bolted or welded. Once I have the answer I plan on purchasing the Fujitsubo legalis-R for the CU2.
So finally my original question is would the CU2 owners on this forum be able to take pics of the exhaust hanger mounting points for the rear left back box and post them on here. So hen I know where to position them to fit the Fujitsubo exhaust.
Thanks in advance for your help.
