I know this is beyond a stupid question BUT will a AWD exhaust fit on a FWD? If not what is the difference?

Yes and no. The center section is the only thing that will and if fits very crappy and has to be modified to fit to the over axle pipe. Not worth the headache and hassle.
What?
What is an axle pipe?

He's probably talking about the section that goes through the rear driver side wheel well.
FYI. Thats not what its called

Most GST exhausts go under it as well.

Its impossible to run the FWD (GS-T/TSi) exhaust on an AWD (GSX/TSi AWD) DSM or vise versa because the hangers are different and the FWD exhaust fills the driveshaft tunnel.
Here's the differences...
FWD Exhaust
AWD Exhaust
I wish you would take a photo or two of your AWD exhaust on your FWD DSM.Im calling BS right now, I have an AWD apexi N1 exhaust that Im using on my 2g FWD right now!
My point is this. If you can do something like change the entire drivetrain of the vehicle thru modifications, what in the world makes you think you cant run an AWD exhaust on a FWD??? I know you cant put the FWD pipes on an AWD because it would be sharing space with the driveshaft...
That being said, my -1 stands because your post was not entirely accurate. Anybody with a cutoff wheel and a stick welder CAN use an AWD exhaust on a FWD car. If you did the AWD swap than you probably have access to both.
I'm not familiar with the 1g's but the OP is asking about a '96 so your pictures won't be much help.When i bought my 1st fwd dsm it had a awd exhaust. i just posted some pictures in my profile if anyone cares to take a look!
