Seriously? Since when? I thought the headers put the mating parts right were the stockers are... it sure looks like they do...

(From Stazi's pictures)

The Weapon R rear header, on the right, is shorter. MSDS on the left, is stock size.

It doesnt look off by much, has anyone reported problems bolting up their stock Y or the BAT/ShoShop y-pipes to it? I haven't heard of anything not working out...

That's BS!

The stock y-pipe WILL bolt up to the headers. All the stock and aftermarket exhaust components ARE interchangeable.

People...please stop spreading BS rumors!

From your post on the thread listed above. "The weapon R's have their own y-pipe which I think is the only one you can use as they have slightly different outlet anngles than the stock headers and MSDS's. But that's OK as there y-pipe is great anyway."

Now i am confused??

I'm confused now too Stazi. I'm not trying to spread BS but that thread says a few times by other CEGers and I thought you, that only the Weapon R y-pipe will fit the headers.

Am I missing something?
