Default Question about 04 Mugen exhaust

Hey guys,

I tried asking this in the main forum and didn't get a response. Does anyone know if the 04 Mugen exhaust will fit earlier model S2000s? If not, what's the difference between the two exhausts (04 and 00-03)?

it wont fit earlier models... the hanger positions on the exhaust are specific for only the 04, basically its the same reason why many exhausts dont go on the 04..Honda changed the hanger points on the underside of the car for the exhaust, and the new mugen exhaust was made for 04 only...

not entirely correct.....but yes honda did change the hanger position (and type) for '04.

i have a pre-'04 Mugen exhaust on my '04 and it fits fine.

but will the 04 exhaust fit pre 04's ?
i remember someone else a while back saying they contacted king motor sports and they said it wont fit...
Mossad, to be sure contact king motor sports

the only stumbling block i can see is that the '04 Mugen tips are bigger and angled....so they may not clear the pre-'04 exhaust cutouts.

the '04 cutouts are HUGE in comparison to the older cars.

good point YOD88.

hey mossad, wanna trade exhausts?

Well king i would amagine would just be trying to sell the newer exhaust. I have a 04 exhaust on my 03 so the hangers will work. The best thing you could do is find someone with the exhaust and do a test fit.

My exhaust is an OEM, though I'm in the market for a Mugen. I don't think you wanna trade for an OEM exhaust
