I just picked up a used 07 fit. It has a factory-optional exhaust (also reflected in the dealer installed options). It looks like it's just a huge tip welded onto a stock-ish looking muffler. Doesn't really sound aftermarket either. I know Honda did offer an optional exhaust for 07/08, but can't find any actual real information. Anyone know more about this?

 

Does yours look like this?



I found these pics in this thread...

sounds like you just got the tip not the whole exhaust

 

Yes, it does look like the one you linked (just not shiny anymore with 49k).

Is this what the OEM one is supposed to look like?.....higher and tip curved down like on the Orange one?.... If that's the case I do have the optional Honda exhaust. So is it just a muffler? Full catback?

Thanks again.

 

The exhaust shown on the Vivid Blue Pearl is an HFP muffler; its only an axle back. The muffler on the BOM Fit is the plain OEM muffler.

 

just the muffler (axleback).

ooops... already replied above....

 

Thanks again everyone.

Side note, lol, window sticker-dealer installed accessories has it at $799.

 

$799 for the muffler? Dude, you got ripped off.

 

Check my original post

 

He didn't, but someone did! Ouch! $800 would almost buy an OEM cat! well, part of the way.

 

haha $800.

 

does that exhaust do anything towards performance?

 

Its good looking for sure, but performance-wise i dont really think it does anything. I wish mine came with an HFP but, 800 bucks...

 

HFP is just a nicer looking axle back than OEM.

 

I remember a while back when there were multiple people on this forum trying to sell their HFP's for like sub-$200... not a very popular muffler for sure.

 

so there is no increase in diameter of piping? Just a rust free muffler?

 

Inlet piping is the same size as the factory muffler. Internal piping look a bit bigger and it's a straight pipe all the way to the tip. It should flow a bit better then the factory muffler. It won't be as good as most aftermarket mufflers but it's quiet.

 

Thanks for the info! +1 rep for you!
Would it be worth it to get 1 new at just under $200?

 

If you can find a used one in good shape why not. Save yourself some money.
If you like it new then Handa Accessories got them for cheapest price I see around.

 

yes, I did visit the H-and-A site.... thats where I got the price from.... I guess that price doesnt bug me too much as I'm planning to keep the car till it dies.
