I just hapend to be passing by acura dealership. I went in and looked at RSX. The tip is bigger than accords tip. Well like I said I was lookng for someting to replace my stock muffler with. I dont want crazy sound and so I was looking for someting quiet but maybe a little louder than my current one.

 

It is possible.........I always thought they were the exact same tips as the TL-S, or at least they look darn close. A guy down the street has a base RSX, and from the RSX-S's I've seen, they look the same, but I could be wrong. I know for a fact that the tips are the same between the Tl/Tl-s, so I'm just assuming acura did the same with the RSX.

Edit.....I walked down the street with a measuring tape (lol--I was bored), they are the same size as the TL-S tips, actually they look like the exact same part. If there is a difference, I sure couldn't tell, but they had the same dimensions.

 

I'm seriously thinking about getting a RSX Type-S Muffler now for my accord. Though I have a 4th gen, i'm wondering if there will be any problems.... anybody know where i can get a hold of one for cheap? instead of going to dealership?

 

You may be able to find a used one on one of the RSX boards, but if you want a new one the best place to go is acuraautomotiveparts.net I think that is the website, do a search on yahoo or something if it's not, they have pretty good prices, much better than any dealership, although you'll probably have to order the muffler and the tip separately.

 

hmm.... 168 for muffler, plus 20 for tip....thats not bad. You think Meineke, or Midas will carry something like that, maybe at a cheaper price? :dunno: I'm gonna go visit acura, and both of those places tomorrow to see...

 

Okay, then yeah, the RSX-S one is a little bigger than the base RSX, because my neigbor has a RSX-S and when I was painting my TL-S mufflers black, I had the tips off and we held it up to his tip, and his was at least a 1/2 inch bigger.

 

I figured it would be expensive. Here's an idea: go get a muffler (something that isn't loud) and then bolt up the RSX tip to it, that will be a cheaper route to go. I'd attempt to find somebody on an RSX board that is willing to sell theirs.
