Hi guys,
Thinking of getting the skunk2 megapower r 70mm in the next week or two. My question is will it bolt on directly onto oem headers? I have a feeling that it won't. I know its a direct bolt on onto RSX but thats rsx and not type r. Anyone fit one before onto OEM headers?

Cheers,
Eryk.

It should fit fine.

I know there was issues fitting JDM exhausts to UKDM headers (RM01A to a UK EP3 for example). As you needed to enlogate the holes on the flange.

Other way round should be fine.

I had a Skunk2 megapower R on my 2002 DC5R. I can tell you that the installation on the OEM header is perfect. ;)

Was it any loud with oem headers?
Inside it was noisy at 4000rpm
Outside the sound is loud but nice.
For info, I measured 112dB at 5000-5500rpm at 1 meter behind the car.

However, the OEM catalyst bolts must be removed (18176-P08-003). You will need to install the bolts supplied with the Skunk2 exhaust.
I had to use a welding torch to remove the 3 bolts.
