Can it be done, and still keep the internal wastegate?

yea take the wastegate actuator off, spin the housing, then figure out a way to bolt it back on

I wanted to originally, but the only way I could think to do it was to tack weld it on there. Instead, I ended up cutting the J-pipe, rotating it, rewelding it and making a sharp bend using stock rubber i/c piping.

I saw one of those for sale a while back on honda-tech that was already modified for a civic, but I didn't have the money at the time. I may try and find one, cause although this gsr exhaust is bigger than the stock 7.3mm exhaust that civics have stock, it's just not enough.

BTW, I am already running without a cat, and a 2.5" midpipe.
