Well I'm not quite sure. What's the reason for needing a flex pipe. I just got back under my car to put my new clutch in and I placed the W/R y-pipe in there underneath my existing 2 bolt one and it matched up perfectly. I'm assuming if I buy the new Trubendz cat with the 3 bolt flange it should match up with my existing cat pipe, which would put it right at the W/R y-pipe flange.

So what am I missing here if I need that flex pipe? Will the Trubendz cat be shorter then my existing one? If thats the case wouldn't be easier and cheaper to just weld on a 3 bolt flange to my exisiting cat pipe?(my neighbor is a welder and has a nice setup, plus he owes me a favor.)



Welding a flange right up to the stock cat. Is another solution.

People would rather do all the work themselves. Instead of leaving there exhasut loose. Then driving a leaking car up to the shop to get it welded.


I reject your reality and substitute my own.
