Upgrade the sound, appearance, and exhaust flow of your turbocharged Honda or Acura with the DC Sports Dual Exhaust System V2, Part #DES-01-05. Designed specifically for the 2022+ Honda Civic Si and 2023+ Acura Integra Base/A-Spec 1.5T, this direct-fit performance exhaust combines a high-flow design with stainless-steel construction and aggressive black exhaust tips for a clean, stealth-inspired appearance.
The V2 system is engineered to deliver a deeper, more authoritative exhaust note without the excessive rasp or constant highway drone that can make an aggressive exhaust unpleasant on a daily-driven vehicle. Its freer-flowing layout complements the turbocharged 1.5L engine and provides additional exhaust-flow capacity for vehicles equipped with supporting performance modifications.
One of the biggest advantages of the V2 design is its interchangeable front section. DC Sports includes adapters that allow the exhaust to work with the factory configuration or a compatible 3-inch aftermarket downpipe, making DES-01-05 an excellent choice for owners who plan to continue modifying their vehicle.

V2 Interchangeable Front Section
- The modular front section is one of the key improvements of the DC Sports V2 exhaust system. Two adapters are supplied: one for connecting the exhaust to the factory downpipe configuration and another for use with a compatible 3-inch aftermarket downpipe.
- This makes DES-01-05 especially appealing for a vehicle that is currently stock or lightly modified. The exhaust can be installed now while retaining the factory downpipe, then adapted later if the vehicle receives a larger downpipe and supporting ECU calibration.
Street-Friendly Performance Sound
- DC Sports designed the system to provide a noticeable change in exhaust character without sacrificing daily drivability. The exhaust produces a deeper rumble under acceleration while its low-drone muffler configuration helps keep the cabin more comfortable at steady highway speeds.
- For Civic Si and Integra owners who want to hear more of the turbocharged engine without an excessively raspy or boomy exhaust note, the V2 design offers a strong balance between performance sound and street manners.
Black Exhaust Tip Finish
- Part number DES-01-05 is specifically the Black Tip version of the DC Sports V2 system. The darker outlets provide a more subtle, aggressive appearance that works particularly well for owners looking for a stealthier alternative to traditional polished stainless tips.
- DC Sports offers three tip finishes within this V2 exhaust family: DES-01-04 – Polished, DES-01-05 – Black, and DES-01-06 – Burnt.
What's Included
- OEM front-pipe adapter

Installation & Fitment Note
- The V2's bolted flanges and supplied gaskets provide secure connections while making the exhaust easier to install, remove, and service. The application-specific design eliminates the need for the fabrication normally associated with a universal exhaust system.
The DC Sports DES-01-05 Dual Exhaust System V2 with Black Tips is an excellent upgrade for the 2022+ Civic Si or 2023+ Integra 1.5T, combining improved exhaust flow, a deep street-friendly tone, low-drone mufflers, modular downpipe compatibility, durable stainless-steel construction, and stealthy black exhaust tips in one complete system.
