Overview

Walker 56288 is an exhaust resonator and pipe assembly built for direct fitment on select Acura TSX applications. It is engineered to match original-system fit, flow, and sound characteristics while using aluminized steel construction for corrosion resistance.

This part cross-references 68540 for the same application.

Key Features

• Precise tuning technology for OE-style exhaust sound.
• Steel pipe and steel body construction for durable service.
• Aluminized finish helps resist rust in everyday driving conditions.
• 3-bolt welded flange inlet for secure exhaust connection.
• Pipe outlet design with a 2.25-inch outside diameter.

Detailed Description

Walker 56288 is an exhaust resonator and pipe assembly for 2009-2014 Acura TSX models. It is shaped to follow original equipment fit, performance, and sound targets, making it a practical replacement when the factory resonator or pipe section is worn, damaged, or no longer sealing properly. The round resonator body measures 15 inches in length and uses steel construction throughout, with an aluminized finish for added protection.

For Acura TSX exhaust repair, this Walker resonator and pipe assembly provides a direct-fit solution that supports proper exhaust flow and OE-style acoustics. The 3-bolt welded flange inlet and pipe outlet configuration help maintain the factory-style connection layout, and the 63.625-inch overall length reflects the assembled pipe-and-resonator design. Walker 56288 is also referenced by part number 68540 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Exhaust leaks caused by a damaged resonator or pipe section.
• Excessive exhaust noise from a worn factory assembly.
• Corrosion-related failure in the original exhaust tubing.
• Poor sealing at the flange connection.
• Flow restriction from a deteriorated exhaust resonator assembly.

Installation Notes

Fits 2009-2014 Acura TSX, N/A. If the original unit is a welded assembly, replace all required related parts during service to restore proper exhaust integrity. Verify flange style, outlet diameter, and overall length before installation.

Quality Assurance

Walker designs resonators to follow original-system fit, flow characteristics, and sound tuning for OE-style replacement performance.
