Default Will '03 After Market Parts fit an '05 EX?

I have an '05 EX and am having a lot of trouble finding intake, exhaust, etc that is compatible with anything later than an '02-'03. Will these parts fit my car too? I assume most of the internals haven't changed in my Civic since 2003, but I'm not sure.

Any help would be great!

theyre different engines, different chassis

Its a brand new platform...expect it to take a little time before crap comes out for the R series

There are some items you can get...

http://www.greddy.com/ look far part numbers: 10156651 or 10156652 in the exhausts

http://www.aempower.com/ look for part number: 22-501 in the intakes/air induction

http://www.dcsports.com/ look for part numbers: HHS5019b or HHS5019s in the header sections.

I know the sites may stop at 04 or say 01-04 or somthing, but I thought that even with the MMC, they would share the engine components. I could be wrong, but I thought that the 05 Ex's had the same chasis and engine as the 01-04's. Weren't they still the D17 for the 01-05 civics? I thought the new engine (R18) didn't start until the 06 model? If they aren't I'd like to read and learn about it. A link would be great.

That's what I thought. I'm gonna try buying an exhaust and cai soon, so I'll just get the latest years that I can.

Hey, does anyone know if the Tsudo Fireball or n-1 are any good and if they'll be long enough with an aero kit on?

Thanks!
