For Honda enthusiasts, the Civic Si has always been a go-to for affordable performance and everyday drivability. But if you’ve ever wished your Si sounded as good as it drives, or breathed a little easier under load, an aftermarket exhaust system is one of the best upgrades you can make.
That’s where Thermal R&D Performance comes in. Our team has spent decades fine-tuning exhaust systems that deliver aggressive sound when you want it, quiet comfort when you need it, and real performance gains across the rev range. For the Honda Civic Si coupe, sedan, and Type-R, our 3-inch stainless steel system is the perfect balance of sound, power, and precision fitment.
Why Upgrade From Your Stock Civic Exhaust?
The OEM exhaust on the Civic Si does its job, but like most factory systems, it’s a compromise. Designed for mass-market appeal, it restricts airflow, mutes the exhaust note, and leaves plenty of performance potential on the table.
Thermal R&D’s Civic Si exhaust system solves all of that with:
- Free-flowing 3-inch T304 stainless steel tubing for maximum durability and performance.
- Resonated mid-pipe with True Helmholtz Technology - our signature approach to sound control. You get deep, aggressive tones under acceleration and wide-open throttle, without the dreaded highway drone.
- OE-style direct-fit hangers - Installation is straightforward, no welding required.
- Polished, style-matched tips and mufflers - Paired with brushed stainless tubing, giving your Civic Si a factory-plus look that commands attention without being over-the-top.
Look no further than the BoostedWhipz video above to see and hear the difference in OE and Thermal R&D Honda Civic exhausts - the evidence speaks for itself!
Sound And Style That Stand Out

As you can hear in the video above, when you rev the stock Si, the sound is flat and uninspired. With a Thermal R&D exhaust, you get a refined but aggressive tone engineered to bring the best out of your build. It’s the kind of exhaust note that makes every gear change satisfying, without punishing you on long commutes.
We also designed our unique tip upgrade to flow with the Civic’s rear bumper lines. It fills out the cutout perfectly, making it clear you’ve upgraded, while still respecting the spirit of the OE design.
Performance And Street Ready

Not every aftermarket exhaust system is created equal. Many louder systems sacrifice comfort for sound, leaving you with constant cabin drone. That’s where Thermal R&D stands apart. Our True Helmholtz Technology cancels out those annoying frequencies, so you enjoy the fun of an aftermarket system without the fatigue.
Add in stainless steel construction, TIG welding, and decades of in-house engineering expertise, and you’ve got an exhaust that will outlast the life of your Civic - while making every drive more fun.
