Hybrid Racing Formula Exhaust System for FL5 Civic Type R

Hybrid Racing Valved Formula Exhaust - 2023+ Honda Civic Type R (FL5)

Your FL5 Type R's got a turbocharged K20C1 making 315 hp and the stock exhaust mutes all of it. You're on boost and the engine sounds like Honda wrapped it in a blanket and told it to whisper. The factory exhaust restricts flow and kills the sound. Hybrid Racing's Valved Formula Exhaust fixes both problems. This is a complete cat-back system with an electronic valve that you're controlling either through Hondata software or with the included wireless remote. Valve open and the exhaust sounds aggressive. Track-loud. Race car loud. You're hearing turbo spool, wastegate flutter, and the K20C1 screaming to redline. Valve closed and it's quieter. Civilized. You can drive through your neighborhood at 7 AM without waking everyone up. You're also getting better flow which means more power. The exhaust bolts to factory or aftermarket front pipes with the included adapter. Adjustable hangers let you dial in the fitment so the tips sit exactly where you want them. This is what you install when you're done with Honda's muted exhaust and you're ready to hear what a turbocharged Type R actually sounds like.

Electronic Valve - Factory Integration or Wireless Remote Control

The valve's what controls the sound and Hybrid Racing's giving you two ways to control it. If you're running Hondata software, you're using the factory exhaust valve system. Hybrid Racing designed a bracket and spring that works with the stock valve motor so the ECU controls the valve position just like it does with the stock exhaust. You're opening and closing the valve through Hondata's tune. Loud when you're in Sport mode. Quiet when you're in Comfort. Whatever you program it to do. If you're not running Hondata or you want manual control, the system includes a wireless remote fob. You're pressing the button and the valve opens or closes on demand. Some people run the remote and leave the valve open all the time. Some people close it in neighborhoods and open it on the highway. Some people open it when they're driving hard and close it when they're cruising. Whatever works for you. The flexibility's the point. You're controlling how your car sounds based on where you are and what you're doing.

Better Flow Means More Power

The stock FL5 exhaust is restrictive. Honda designed it to be quiet and to meet emissions regulations. It's not designed to flow maximum exhaust. When you're making boost the exhaust can't evacuate gases fast enough. That backpressure costs you power. Hybrid Racing's Formula Exhaust uses larger diameter tubing and a less-restrictive muffler design. You're getting better flow from the turbo all the way out the tips. Better flow means less backpressure which means the turbo spools easier and you're making more power through the midrange and top end. The exhaust also sounds way better than stock which is the main reason most people buy it but the power gains are real. You're getting both. Better sound and better performance.

Bolts to Stock or Aftermarket Front Pipes with Included Adapter

The exhaust includes an adapter section so it bolts to factory front pipes or aftermarket downpipes. Stock front pipe with stock cats. Catted aftermarket downpipe. Catless downpipe. Doesn't matter. The adapter lets you run whatever you want up front and the exhaust still bolts on correctly. The muffler's got adjustable hangers so you're dialing in the tip alignment exactly where you want it. The tips aren't sitting crooked or hanging too low. You're adjusting the hangers until everything's flush and the tips are aligned with the bumper cutouts. The exhaust retains the factory-style rear valence so it looks clean and OEM-plus. You're not cutting the bumper. You're not installing a new valence. The stock setup stays in place.

Stainless Steel Construction with Multiple Tip Finish Options

The entire system's built from stainless steel. It's not going to rust or corrode. The welds are clean. The flanges are flat. Everything's designed to last. Hybrid Racing's offering the exhaust with three tip finish options. Gloss black for a stealthy look. Polished stainless for a classic shiny finish. Burnt titanium for a heat-treated look with blue and gold tones. All three finishes are dual tips. Pick whatever matches your build or your style. The tips are part of the muffler assembly so they're not slip-on pieces that rattle or fall off. They're welded on and they're staying there.
