i have an 02 civic ex will i need to weld or cut anything to install it or will it line up without a new down pipe?

Nope no welds or cuts needed. Its just a bolt on. Unless of course your civic for some reason had the old bolts that connect to the cat converter welded on, then you will have to cut the old pipe and grind off the three bolts. I bought the car used and am the third owner and for some reason or another somewhere down that line the bolts got welded on and I had to grind them off but that should NOT be the case. Once the old pipe was off though it was a simple and easy bolt on operation.

it bolts in. I used the old down pipe/ cat and cleared it out. works great good price

It lines up perfect with your down pipe only issue is using the stock down pipe the way the bolt pattern is it angle the aftermarket piping and muffler downwards so if your cars low or gonna be lowered you'd need to change down pipe or have your stock part near the bolts that meets up with this cut cut off turned some then re welded then just bolt this kit up. It's deff worth it deff sounds awesome and does add some horsepower with my 02 civic ex Vtec I'm running this exhaust with aftermarket headers stock down pipe and true cold air intake and I've seen a HUGE DIFFERENCE

have to weld in place. Local shop charged about $100 to have it welded. Would not recommend this as DYI project, unless you have experience plus a lift and welder available.

I wouldn't know, I bought one for a friend who has a 2002 Civic EX, it's best to use the Garage feature on Amazon, I am only a customer who bought one from the vendor.

We had no issues with the exhaust system at all on my 96 EX 2dr Coupe. If your car is lowered you may need to make one small adjustment which is a heat an bend right after the cat so it's not too low.

Don't know your Lance so don't know exactly what will need to be done. The pipe mounting brackets may need to be bent to fit or modified and you'll need to find a place to bolt on the muffler support clamp.

Are you asking if you have to adjust the computer after installing this kit yes if you got after market pipes .. you will still run lean if all you do is install the breather kit but not enough to cause immediate damage but you need to do it asap

Easy to install, PITA to get the old one off. I used an angle grinder to cut slits in the side of the old mufflers connecting tubes. You also may need a longer center pipe between catalytic converter and muffler.

Cut slits in the ends too so it will crush down onto the old pipe. If you dont you'll never get a tight fit when you put the clamps on.

Yea. Take it to a muffler shop. My maxima had a 2 inch diameter and they weld it together just fine.

Just click the the seller's page. They offer a direct fit kit for the Civic.. that will take all the guesswork out.

You will need to measure your existing pipe and see if diameters match. Depending on your setup you may have to cut pipe shorter or maybe extend on existing pipe. You need to do some research about ur vehicle. Sorry but cars do vary quite a bit and no one can give you a definite answer. Make sure you check for clearances as newer cars seem to have everything squeezed into tight spaces.We wont do research for you but the product is good if it fits.

I wouldn't weld. Clamp it, and hang it. Auto parts store should have what you need. Its only a muffler

Yes, that part you need is just a everyday pvc pipe. I actually cut mine shorter. Take it apart and cut the length and re install. Very easy.

Piping is a to-fit process, the muffler itself needs to be welded to either a new pipe, or existing pipe, and you'll probably need an adapter for the difference in pipe size

Yuppers like a charm. When you pull the stock one off. Ther is going be a mesh-like fitting that wont allow you to putt new exhaust on. JUst wiggle that off and your good to go. It will have you drill a small hole for a pin that will hold it in place. But other than that. It is extremely easy to install. About 15 mins for me. Hope this helps.

We have a 99' Civic (I think DX if that's the basic model) and this was exactly the right part to replace the catalytic converter. I think the mechanic explained that on this car it is attached to the manifold. I hope it works for what you need. It saved us bank $$$!

If the pipe is 2.5" wide it should fit! The problem, however, is that you must either get it welded on, which I recommend (around $80 bucks) or buy clamps and a saw for yourself to attach it. The problem with this is that you will hear rattling, a weirder noise, and you will probably have trouble with the sawing. I welded mine on at a shop for 80 bucks and removed my resonator for another 60, sounds really nice, loud and agressive! I think of it as a catback for my 08 Accord, but for 1/8th the price! Great item!
