That sucks

First, note that the turbo y-pipe is actually supposed to sit higher. I am planning to remove it and the down pipe so I can drive to the exhaust shop (30 minutes away) I just threw the pipes on to get an idea of fittment.

Two options for the exhaust.

1. Make an adaptor piece that bridges the gap

2. Make new pipes/rework the existing pipes to fit. Cut, weld...

I'm doing option #2 because I want to remove the resonators.

I should just pay your exhaust shop to bridge the two exhausts and send the set to me, so I can duplicate it for those that have this exhaust.

I'll hold off cutting my pipes then. I just had the bright(?) idea of cutting my exhaust, getting some flex pipe and clamps to make my own "bridge" just to get me to the shop without making too much noise.

Well...if you have a plan I would not want you to change because of this (me).

My "plan" was wasting money just so I *might* have a less noisy drive to the exhaust shop :bowrofl:

If you're serious let me know.

Seriously, with the turbo in place it won't be that loud....!

I agree,I don't think it'll be that bad. I drove with open header/art pipes to an exhaust shop for mine. That was loud lol
