I finally figured out which specific exhaust from the Accord fits directly to our 1st Gen. CL's.

I called up the Acura dealership and I asked for the part # for the catback which they call it a "B-Pipe". And also asked for the part # for the muffler. After this, I called the Honda dealership and had them give me a cross-referance of what particular Accord these part numbers match up too. It's the 97 Accord EX 2/4dr. I asked him if this was just for the 2dr or 4dr and the guy said either one. But, if I end up ordering an aftermarket exhaust system for my CL, I'm gonna make sure it's the 2dr application just to make sure.

If you're curious of the part #'s, they are:
B-Pipe (catback) - 18220-SV1-C70
Muffler - 18030-SV1-C70

 

it's a shame that doesn't help out any of us 3.0ers. Oh well. I'm pretty sure the people here already knew that.

 

nice find... ur the first person to ever figure that one out!

 

Just call your Acura dealer and ask for the part number of your stock exhaust system. Then call the Honda dealership and tell them the part # that the Acura dealer gave you and have them tell you what kind of Honda it goes on. I'm sure it's on some kind of Accord, but since it's a 3.0... Hell, it could be related to a Prelude.

Hey, thanks. I just quit goat-thinking all of the sudden, I guess.

 

He was joking with you mang.

 

2.2/2.3 exhaust fits the 3.0 also.

I know because I took the Greddy SP off my 2.2 and put it on a 98 3.0.

The exhausts are interchangeale between CL's as long as you order one from a 97 accord, if you order the one for a 98 accord it will not line up.

 

not to be a dick but we all knew 94-97 accord specifically the ex has same exhaust setup as f22 or f23 cl. i dont know why u had to bother spending time to find that out. we would have told you. thanks for the info though.

 

 

The 3.0 and 2.x axel backs are a perfect fit. The B pipe like he said, or what i like to call the mid pipe are off by a couple inches.

 

 

I should have figured, me being a noob and this site being around for how long, I don't know.


I GOT NOOBED!!!

 

I posted a thread about exhaust systems a couple of days ago and nobody told me the specifics about the 97 EX Accord being axactly the same as the CL. People just told me to look around. So, I figured that nobody knew.

 

probably meaning look around or search the site......
if i saw the thread i would have given you a reply, guess it slipped by
