I assume you're on about bends to make the back seats usable, they'll be the US Honda boys who are more concerned about looks than performance. 
As for the bend in that cage you quoted that makes it a dash dodger, that's how it's built, I believe.

yea its not going to be a straight fit things will need trimming rear doorcards need chopping a bit ect but it should just squeeze in
And it looks tidier than stripped out keeps cabin noise down and i still keep looking at production class hill climing which requires the full interior (rear bench ect) to still be in place

Yeh definitely easier with engine and box out, saying that I did fit mine with it in and the exhaust on haha!
