I've got an H23 VTEC goin into my Si, so I bought an HP Racing H22 header for the swap. It is off of a 97 Prelude. I know the newer H22 headers were a bit shorter than the earlier ones, so I was thinking:

If I buy a 97-up exhaust, will it bolt right up to the header? I have also read that the newer Preludes' exhaust piping bends the same as the older Prleudes', so I'm thinking it should fit.

Anyone agree/disagree?

The bend in the piping is very similar, but you will find the 97+ exhaust is slightly longer and the rear section of piping will need modification to fit in a shorter space

When you say the rear section, do you mean the muffler end or the header end?

I believe the newer H22 headers are shorter, so if the newer H22's exhaust is longer and will reach up to my newer H22 header, then that's exactly what I need.

I mean the muffler end, more specifically, the leading pipe from the flange into the muffler would need to be shortened or "redone".

You may also find that the o2 sensor wire might not be long enough for where it plugs in usually, you'll need to investigate this though, I'm not too familiar with where its positioned, and obdII ones had a secondary sensor didn't they?
