SRS R60 Catback Exhaust System TÜV – Honda Civic FN2 Type-R (CBS-CV06FN2-R60)

Product Overview

The 8th-generation European Civic Type-R (FN2) is celebrated for its distinctive triangular bumper exhaust exits and sharp VTEC crossover. However, beneath the aggressive rear styling lies a heavy, highly restrictive factory exhaust pipeline. The standard OEM catback utilizes tight press-bends, narrow diameters, and restrictive multi-chambered baffles that trap thermal energy, slow gas velocity, and stifle the true performance output of the high-revving K-series engine.

The SRS R60 Catback Exhaust System TÜV – Honda Civic FN2 Type-R (CBS-CV06FN2-R60) is a premium, race-engineered exhaust upgrade that balances performance flow with everyday street compliance. Available at JDMaster.net, this catback system is constructed entirely from high-grade SUS304 polished stainless steel and features a continuous mandrel-bent 70mm straight-through architecture. It maximizes exhaust gas scavenging to deliver proven mid-range and top-end power gains. Crucially, the system features a high-density acoustic dampening design that suppresses annoying cabin drone while carrying a complete TÜV certification for hassle-free street operation.

Key Features & Benefits

• Official TÜV Certification: Fully tested and approved under European noise and emissions compliance regulations, ensuring worry-free vehicle inspections and street-legal operation.

• High-Grade SUS304 Stainless Steel: Fabricated using industrial-polished, aircraft-grade stainless steel to deliver superior resistance against corrosion, road salt, and harsh thermal cycles.

• Mandrel-Bent 70mm Piping: Continuous, smooth-bore mandrel bending maintains a perfectly uniform internal diameter throughout, eliminating flow restrictions and reducing backpressure.

• Acoustically Tuned Resonators: Packed with advanced, high-temperature composite fibers that absorb harsh frequencies and drone, generating a deep, mature, sporty exhaust note that truly sings during VTEC engagement.

• Seamless Triangle Bumper Integration: Precision CAD-designed tailpipe routing slips perfectly into the factory triangular rear bumper exhaust bezels for a flawless, clean OEM aesthetic.

• Direct Bolt-On Layout: Precision-aligned flanges and factory-positioned mounting hooks ensure a straightforward installation onto your vehicle’s original rubber chassis hangers.

The Mechanical Advantage: Unlocking VTEC Scavenging Within Legal Sound Limits

For a high-revving, naturally aspirated K-series engine, power delivery is dictated by exhaust gas velocity and pressure-wave scavenging. When the engine crosses over to the aggressive VTEC cam profile, the volume of spent gas exiting the combustion chambers increases exponentially. The factory FN2 exhaust forces these hot gases through restrictive crimp-bends and multiple baffle walls, creating backpressure that limits cylinder filling and creates a distinct flat spot in the mid-range torque curve.

The SRS R60 Catback System corrects this performance barrier. By transitioning to a smooth 60.5mm straight-through corridor, it removes the internal restrictions entirely. As exhaust pulses flow unimpeded through the mandrel bends, they create a low-pressure vacuum behind them that actively pulls remaining exhaust out of the cylinders—drawing a cleaner, denser fuel mixture into the engine for the next combustion stroke.

To achieve official TÜV certification without sacrificing this high-velocity flow, SRS engineers utilized high-density acoustic packing wrapped around a perforated inner core rather than power-robbing baffle walls. This architecture absorbs high-frequency vibrations and low-RPM boominess, providing a clean, daily-driveable cabin experience while delivering an authoritative, unrestrictive mechanical tone when you hit the gas.
