Single-Exit Catback System for the 5th-Gen Civic
This catback exhaust system replaces the entire exhaust path behind the factory catalytic converter on 1992–1995 Honda Civic models — piping, resonator, muffler, and tip in a single kit. It is built for the 1.5L and 1.6L Civic trims listed below, combining 2.36 in OD 201 stainless steel tubing, a single side-exit 4 in burnt tip, and bolt-on fitment that requires no cutting.
The tubing carries a polished finish, with CNC-machined flanges and mandrel bends used throughout the system. Whether you are replacing a worn factory exhaust on a daily driver or completing a period-correct 5th-generation Civic build, this kit covers everything downstream of the catalytic converter in one order.

Key Features
- Complete Catback Replacement: Replaces everything behind the factory catalytic converter — piping, resonator, muffler, and tip — so there are no extra sections to source for a full rear exhaust refresh.
- 2.36 In OD Stainless Tubing: 201 stainless steel piping with a polished finish, so you know the exact material and tube size being installed before you order.
- Muffler and Resonator Included: The system ships with a single muffler and one resonator as part of the exhaust path — you are getting a complete system, not a muffler-only section.
- 4 In Burnt Tip: A single side-exit rear tip with a burnt finish gives the rear bumper a visible styling change using the parts included in the box.
- Bolt-On Installation with No Cutting: The listed installation is bolt-on with no cutting required — the system bolts together behind the factory catalytic converter without fabrication work.
- Mounting Hardware in the Box: Gaskets, bolts, and nuts are included, so there is no separate hardware order needed to complete the installation.

Check Before Ordering
- Confirm your Civic's trim, engine, and body style appear in the Fitment table above — this system is listed only for the 1992–1995 trims shown, not for other Civic generations.
- Verify the flange style at your factory catalytic converter outlet before ordering; if you are unsure which mounting style your car uses, contact us with your vehicle details before purchase.
- This kit replaces the section behind the catalytic converter only — it does not include headers, a downpipe, or a catalytic converter.

1992–1995 Honda Civic Catback Exhaust FAQs
Q1: Which Honda Civic models does this catback fit?
A1: It is listed for 1992–1995 Honda Civic CX, DX, EX, LX, Si, and VX trims with the 1.5L or 1.6L inline-4, in the coupe, hatchback, and sedan body styles shown in the Fitment table above. These trims make up the fifth-generation Civic platform, commonly referred to by the EG/EH/EJ chassis codes.
Q2: Is this a catback or an axle-back system?
A2: It is a catback system. It replaces the exhaust path from behind the factory catalytic converter to the rear bumper — piping, resonator, muffler, and tip — rather than only the rear muffler section.
Q3: Does this kit keep the factory catalytic converter?
A3: Yes. The system bolts on downstream of the factory catalytic converter, so the emissions-relevant front section of the exhaust is not replaced or modified.
Q4: What pipe diameter does this system use?
A4: The system uses 2.36 in OD stainless steel tubing throughout the catback section.
Q5: What size and finish is the tip?
A5: It uses a single 4 in diameter tip with a burnt finish, exiting on one side at the rear bumper.
Q6: What material is the exhaust made from?
A6: The tubing is 201 stainless steel with a polished finish, paired with CNC-machined flanges and mandrel bends.
Q7: Does the system include a muffler and a resonator?
A7: Yes. One muffler and one resonator are part of the system, along with the connecting piping and the tip.
Q8: What hardware comes in the box?
A8: Gaskets, bolts, and nuts are included with the exhaust sections, so no separate hardware purchase is needed for installation.
Q9: Does installation require any cutting?
A9: No. The listed installation for this kit is bolt-on with no cutting required.
Q10: Will this catback affect the check engine light or O2 sensors?
A10: This system installs behind the factory catalytic converter and does not replace or relocate the oxygen sensors or other emissions components. As with any exhaust work, check all connections for tightness after installation.
Q11: My Civic is a 1993–1995 EJ coupe — is that covered?
A11: Yes, coupe versions of the 1992–1995 Civic are covered under the DX and EX trims in the Fitment table. The EJ chassis code refers to fifth-generation Civic coupes; confirm your trim and engine (1.5L or 1.6L) against the table before ordering.
Q12: How does this system sound compared to stock?
A12: We do not publish decibel figures for this kit. What we can confirm is the configuration: 2.36 in OD tubing feeding one resonator and a single muffler with a 4 in burnt tip — use that layout as the reference point when comparing sound clips for this platform.
