Default question about PPE Headers fitment

Hi guys
I was comparing between PPE and FI
I liked the PPE more but I noticed that it's shorter than FI
I am running an ARK Exhaust and Berk TP
FI should fit perfectly but PPE is shorter and it's not a short headers
Wouldn't install it make a gap between the exhaust and the PPE headers??

both headers will remove your TP

I know that but my concern is the fitment with the exhaust
Since PPE is shorter than FI, would it make a gap between it and the exhaust??

It fits exactly the same. The merge collector is shorter because it was tuned at that length to best match the VQ's power curve. It fit's absolutely fine. Go in my pictures and I have shots where it connects to the Y pipe.

I checked your pictures
It fitted perfectly
Thanks SS_Firehawk
I think I will go for it
BTW I noticed that you're running M370 intake manifold
Did you got any HP gains from it??
Because some guys installed it but they lost some HP

No increase in HP gains, lost 2whp above 7200rpm, but a lot of mid range. I have pictures of the dyno graph as well. Or you can click on my sig link. I have a review of everything I purchased and the gains achieved.
