Honda Civic Type R (FK8) Exhaust FAQ's

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

What exhaust layout works best on the FK8 for daily plus track days?

A resonated cat‑back balances cabin comfort and flow. Pair with a compliant downpipe solution appropriate for your region to keep the FK8 civilized off‑boost and free‑revving on track.

Will larger‑diameter FK8 systems drone on the highway?

Resonators, Helmholtz chambers, and proper muffler design curb low‑RPM resonance. Choose FK8 systems with tested NVH control for long‑distance comfort.

Do I need a tune after exhaust changes on the FK8?

Cat‑back only typically doesn’t. Significant pre‑cat or downpipe changes on an FK8 should be paired with calibration to keep trims and boost targets happy.
