what are you looking to do? drop teh car low? or actaully take fast turns and maybe go to a track? the mugen suspension is designed for a 4dr, not a 2dr, so it right away it wont be the exact same performance.for the money difference, i would say the HFP if you wanted it for tracking. if you wanted it for looks, maybe buddy club, or tein. unless you want a better dampener you can get tokico struts and a mild lowering spring. |

From King Motorsports:
1.8.2008 UPDATE: 06-07 Civic Si Coupe Mugen cat-back exhaust fitment Initial test fitting of the Mugen exhaust has been completed on the USDM Civic Si Coupe. Unfortunately the Mugen cat-back exhaust will not fit the Si Coupe due to the following differences on USDM spec Si: The rear muffler on the JDM spec car uses two exhaust hangars whereas the USDM spec car uses only one, and secondly, the length of the USDM catalytic converter is several inches shorter than the JDM spec catalytic converter. We do not see any cost effective simple solutions to modifying the exhaust to fit at this time. Next up is test fitting on a USDM Si 4 door. Results to follow shortly. |

That update refers only to the type-r mugen exhaust available at king motorsports. but there is a full cat back exhaust on the us mugen si. you can order it through a honda dealer, but the vin is required for the order. i work at a dealer and worked with one of the parts guys and found this out the hard way when i went to order th mugen shift knob. i guess they are trying to stop people from building there own mugen si cause they want to keep the cars rare or whatever there reasoning. anyway the knob is back ordered along with other parts... i did see the short shifter was in stock... it is a complete replacement shifter not an adapter like most companies. cost is about $150, thats before markup. cost of full catback exhaust is $1050. so figure a few hundred more for dealer markup. but you better write down a vin the next time you see one.

I think that my cost is going to be aroun $230... so $300 after dealer markup sounds about right. i just tried to order one today and the honda parts catalog wont release any from the wharehouse (even though there is 89 out there) because of uncompleted research and developement... ill update when they are even available and ill get with my parts guy to see about a price for other members.
