Thermal R&D Catback / Frontpipe Exhaust System – 2016+ Honda Civic Si Sedan
The Thermal R&D Catback / Frontpipe Exhaust System is a premium performance upgrade engineered specifically for the 2016+ Honda Civic Si Sedan with the 1.5L turbocharged engine.
This 3″ system (reducing to 2.5″ at the tailpipes) delivers an aggressive turbo growl during acceleration and launch while effectively eliminating drone during cruising thanks to Thermal R&D’s signature True Helmholtz Technology (THT) and a resonated mid-pipe.
Constructed from high-quality T304 stainless steel, the system features a mill finish on the front pipe, tubing, and resonator, paired with a brushed muffler and a polished tip that fills out the OEM valance and bumper for a clean, upgraded appearance.
The design retains all factory hangers for a direct bolt-on installation with no cutting or modifications required. This exhaust gives Civic Si owners the perfect balance of enhanced sound, improved flow, and refined performance.
