For the most part yes. Do you have different versions?

aluminized steel should be fine but let me know what the difference in cost would be.

right now i only have one but i can make other versions i suppose...either send me a pic of what your thinking of or kinda draw it out in ms paint or something..ill do my best to copy what you send. stainless is going to be more expensive and id have to order it, ill have to order the aluminized pipe as well to get 3"ID, i can get 2.5" id anytime. so either way ther is going to be a wait of maybe 3weeks (one week for me to get the material, one week to get enough time to do it, and one week of shipping to you). let me know what you need and ill do my best to make it happen.

I'm not worried about the time. I know you'll get it to me in a timely manner so i have no issues and the fact that i'm not getting my kit anytime soon i have no rush.

I def want a 3" y pipe on all ends seeing as though i want to have a full 3" exhaust from the turbo back. What i had in mind was to get of my canister style mufflers. My exhaust shop can make me a really good inexpensive 3" midpipe and i would have them weld on a round or maybe oval muffler in the midpipe.

As for the axle back portion i was looking to have your y pipe welded to the custom midpipe and have to 2 pipes come out to the bumper with 4" stainless tips welded on.

Dont think i made much sense in that last sentence but i think you know where i'm getting at. I'm going to do my best and try to make an illustration on what i mean but bear with me cause my photoshop/paint skills isn' that great. lol

I think i see what your getting at, it will be tough but im positive i can do it. do you need a flang welded onto it? or a slip fit?

ummm not sure. A slip on should be fine i guess. I'm going to have it welded on so that might be easier.

Also i think just a regular y pipe should be fine. Here's the y pipe i currently have on my car.

It got the job done but i'm looking for something a little better flowing if you get what i mean. Also i'm looking for something that has a better clearance than what i currently have.

Heres a pic of what my set up looks like now.

My exhaust guy did his best to keep it as high of the ground as possible. Came out ok. I wanted it routed above the back frame thingy like the stock pipe but i dont think he was able to do it. Do you think you can make a y pipe that can allow me to route it that way or will it be impossible due to the 3" pipes? i'm assuming that it might be easier to get the axle back section done seeing as though i wont have those big **** canisters there anymore.

Whats your input. Any ideas would help.

It sounds pretty good. Heres a vid i took after i got it done on a cold start. The only think i dont like is that its a little raspy on a cold start but once the car warms up it has a nice deep tone. The mufflers are supposedly HKS turbo canisters..... at least thats what the description said. lol

that's a pretty nice muffler. I think you should do something similar to mine. I want to install a muffler in the midpipe then have it go into a y pipe and split at the axle and weld on 4" tips
