Hi guys,

I’m need for the complete exhaust system for my 5th Gen as thieves cut out the CAT and also cut the down pipe and centre pipe (B*STARDS!!)

I’m looking for OEM pipes and CAT. These have now been discounted by Honda :(

I am after;

- Down pipe inc 02 sensor.
- CAT (H22a5 or H22a8)
- Centre pipe
- Back box (not hugely required)

I don’t mind buying parts from different sellers, PM me what you have, will be much appreciated.

Cheers
Arif

I think you will struggle to find OEM stuff now - anything that was in stock will have been used up a long time ago. Occasionally you see some OEM stuff on ebay - someone had it in their garage for the last 10 years, or some dealer finds it in the back of a cupboard.

The aftermarket stuff is probably OK for midsection, but the downpipes always look a bit crap / restrictive / poor bends.

Such a bummer this happened to you - cat theft is annoying at the best of times, but more so when original parts aren't available on a classic, and they damage the rest of the system too :(

Thanks mate. I've luckily got the OEM downpipe but struggling with the CAT and centre pipe. Do you know of anyone who does OEM equivalent?

I'm sure there were 2 different specs for exhaust depending on whether you had an a5 or a8. I found this out as I got a replacement centre section and the garage had to chop a certain amount off the straight pipe to get it to fit.

Please correct me if I'm wrong though.

EDIT: Just checked on Lings and they have different part numbers for cat, mid pipe and rear box, between a 1998 and 2000 2.2 prelude.

You'll find loads of pattern parts on the usual part aggregator sites or ebay. I bought a cheap cat for my last 5th gen (60 odd quid i think) - passed MOT no problems. Older cars don't suffer from 'type approval' which means cheap cats are OK.
