i want to buy mugen twin loop for my 9... i found two mugen twin loops for sale... one of them from dc2 and the other one from b16 engine.. but the problem is dc2 mugen twin loops tube is bigger then the other one.. which one is better for ek9 fitment ???
 
Dc2 will not fit at all, the box itself and piping is much longer than a Ek9 one. EK9 or EG6 fitment one is the only option for a hatch unless you are willing to cut it up and remake the whole dc2 box 3-4" shorter.

that one near the spoon n1 is my twinloop which ı took out from my dc2... it also fit in my ek9 but i dont know which one is correct fitment for ek9 the other one is my friend ek4 twinloop
 
Does your one off the dc2 fit your ek9? Top one certainly looks like ek9. The dc2 one will have a larger 2.5"gasket flange for the larger mugen dc2 center section.

Ek9 and eg6 twinloops are not the same.

Ek4/eg6 twinloop is designed to fit oem type b pipes, the ek9 twinloop has larger pipe and flange and is designed to fit the mugen b pipe
 
the one near the spoon is from dc2 and it is fit on ek9.. i tried it... the other small one also fit on ek9... but i really dont know which one going to be better for my car
 
You sure the DC2 one fits? Was nowhere near able to fit on an EG6, was not enough room at all between ARB, hooks and bumper. The whole box is 3-4" longer than the hatch one. Can you post a picture of it on?

Also I don't quite understand your question. "Which is better?" Which ever fits best.

Didn't realise the Ek9 ones were made with 2.5" collector as well to go with Mugen center, makes sense though. I do recall the EG6/Ek4 ones having 2" collector to fit stock system and 57mm OD piping instead of the 61mm OD on the DC2 ones, would expect the EK9 specific ones to have same as DC2. I will have to keep an eye out for a complete Ek9 Mugen system.
 
it was on my friend ek9 before as you can see this one is dc2 mugen twinloop the same exhaust on the previous picture..
my question is dc2 mugen is fits on ek9 but i have a chance to buy a genuine ek9 mugen.. which one shell I choose ???

Maybe the ek9 one will fit better on the bumper cut for the exhaust tip....on that photo the tip isn't perfectly fitted like we should expect from mugen.....if you can buy an ek9 one go for it, buy the specific one for your car.........
 
IMO there seems to be custom work going on there... Most of the dc2/eg6 parts will fit or integrate each other as they share roughly the same chassis.. usually DC2 back boxes are bigger and longer but can be made to fit with custom work.. a friend of mine bought a spoon N1 off a ep3 and had it custom fitted to his Jordan.. Im sure that eg6/dc2/ek B-pipes are all the same its just the back box that's different.
