he roll cage is inside the car which has been cut out and extended farther to keep the unibody from flexing(prevent the doors from bangin when the air ride is raised and lowered...

but a roll cage is there to keep your head from getting smushed if the car flips over. sounds like what you have is, like you said, unibody reinforcement.

RE: Sup

a few things...i can contest that a properly built rollcage does as much stiffening of the unibody as it does save you in the event of a rollover...the demon that i am building will have a cage in it, because the previous owner cut the front fenderwells out, weakening the unibody...

second, how to you make true duals on a car with only one exhaust bank?

RE: Sup

well thanks, and yes plenty Honda's out with dual exhaust. (by true duals, I meant not a dummy 2nd exhaust like I have seen) I should have been more specific....

anyhow, didn't mean to get anything started.....
