it is a fake dual setup...its a 3" intermediate and overaxle pipe, then goes into a crossflow style muffler (80 series), than it has dual 2.5" out with 3.5" tips I believe....

not sure about why it wouldn't fit your car, but if you took it to a shop or something, I dont' see how they wouldn't be able to fab something up to make it work...just make sure they don't put a crush bent pipe in there, that will put an end to your flow...

well i am getting a cat for it. mine is really bad. like..i dunno if its clogged or what but the car runs like crap whens its first started after its been on for a few mins. if i hit it it rattles so...its gone... so maybe that wont matter then. the cat may have different openings that might work. ill get it 2 work somehow i guess
