you need an extra o2 sensor hole and it needs to be extended by a few inches...

No need to extend it. The extra o2 senser you will need though, look at page 2 on my homepage to see how it looks on a 97 rear.

i got the obx and paid $265 shipped.

it's all SS with a mirror finish with 2.5" piping. when ppl see it from the rear they think it's a greddy.

i'm glad i waited and didn't get the ws.

If he wants it to be even with his bumper cut out he needs to extend it otherwise it'll be tucked behind the bumper like your's is...

The WS is only 2.25". The only downside to it that I've noticed.

obx isn't 2.5 either. The WS is almost 2.5, when I measured the inside diameter of mine it was between 2.4-2.5"...

i got my obx catback from ssautochrome.

some pl got it cheaper than me, like araffio (tony).

when i was looking for the ws it was going for $450 and i was told it was 2 1/4" piping.

after tony and others got the obx, i took there word for it and i went with the obx.

so my car is not loud and i saved about $185, i'm very happy.

Actually only the muffler is SS on the WS, the b-pipe itself is something else, not sure what it's coated with something. I hope you're not comparing a WS to the OBX quality wise...

does the 4th gen obx fit both 95-96 and 97-99 equally well? i mean, like the apex, it has to be modified to fit non 95-96. i have a '95 and am looking into gettin an obx catback.

The Greddy is 2.5" and thats the one used in that civic/max video with BrianV's Sage Mist Green Max

Usually $500-550 shipped, the sound is priceless imo

The WS has to be modified to fit on a 97-99 not 95-96...
