I replaced my stock cat with a Magnaflow RSX Type-S Direct Fit Catalytic Converter: Install & Review
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video, I walk through the step-by-step process of installing the MagnaFlow 02-06 RSX Type S California CARB Compliant Catalytic Converter, Part Number 5461182. I needed a California Grade CARB Compliant Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter and was advertised as direct fit and suppose to be an easy install with the proper tools, with no cutting or welding required. Not exactly what I experienced.
Currently, this is the only aftermarket company that makes a cat that meet or exceed California Air Resource Board requirements. It was mention with to be specifically designed for the 2002-2006 Acura RSX Type S, this direct-fit catalytic converter interchanges with OE parts 18160-PRB-A00.
Has anyone else tried this product? It didn't go as smoothly, and my overall thoughts / review are after this install.

Thanks for the tip on the extension. Can you reference in the description the shop I can contact to make the exact same part? Do you think referencing this video will be enough to get the same part you have? How much was it? Will be getting the same magnaflow part for an ‘02 type S
So that part number for the gasket is Acura. Will the Honda part # you had for the gasket when you installed the Spoon Axle back work?

I look them up via Acura parts site since it’s an 03 Acura RSX Type S, however, when they ship it, it’s always a Honda part. The two part # are different, but never compared the two side by side to know by how much. Doughnut gasket from Manifold to Cat is part# 18229-S6M-A51. Axle back doughnut gasket connection to B pipe is part#18229-SP0-003. My guess is no, or why take the risk.

Thank you! I got the same Spoon N1 exhaust for my 05 but I might just get the B-pipe with it if the B-pipe comes with the gasket and such. We'll see just enjoying the car for now while its still stock. @@revcircle

I can put one together but it’ll be with the new exhaust, header and this cat. My spoon video has a smaller sound test at idle
Can I buy your oem cat
