just got an slp cat-back

$50 and its only three months old it looks like the borla setup. but it didnt come with a pipe from the cat to the muffler. could i just use flex pipe for that or is it too long of a section? i would like to get one made at a shop. how much do you think that would cost?

Re: just got an slp cat-back

That isn't a catback then. That is just a muffler with some tips.

Re: just got an slp cat-back

No problem noob. I am pretty sure you could use a flex tube, but why ghetto rig an exhaust? You should be able to use the stock piping.

Re: just got an slp cat-back

I want a full 3 inch exhaust. so you think a flex pipe would work?

Re: just got an slp cat-back

I don't know if it would. I am sure you could figure out a way, But what are you going to do about getting it to stay, mounting brackets, specific cut length... You are better off going to the JY and getting some stock exhaust which I think is like 2.75 inch, and would most likely be cheaper.

Re: just got an slp cat-back

well I have what i think is a stock exhaust on my car except for the muffler and tail pipe- they look fairly new, but im not sure. the pipe going back to the muffler isnt round, its oval and im not sure what the stock exhaust actually looks like.

well i just found a pic of stock exhaust and mine deff. doesn't look like that. it looks much smaller than what is on mine and its round, so maybe my car already has what i want on it there. hopefully thats the case.
