so check this out yall!!! me and vanquish were at the hobby shop here on base, and we were doin everything we could to get my x pipe to ffit correctly, wich may seem like an easy task but lemme just tell you, its not!!! i cot this shorty x from dafizuck, its catless so i figured id like it a lot beter than my catted x. any way its made by jba i think and i have bbk headers, so needless to say they just were not workin at all, we all know how bbk likes to hook up to bbk and nothing else. it wasnt even clearing the tranny crossmember too well i guess my long tubes arent quite long enough for the pipe!!! but any way since it wasn clearing i thought that if i cut the pipe i could weld two pieces of straight pipe in there and i wouldnt have a problem well that didnt quite work out either, it ended up being too far back and i was gonna have to cut the catback, and re weld it, so it was just becoming a headache, so instead we took this l0ng catless x that i imagine was for a truck, taht was layin outside in the garbage heap, and started hacking it up. nip here, tuck there, weld here, weld there,........ and in the end it fit perfectly!!!! we took the other x, cut and re welded it with parts from the other x to creat a frankin x!!!!!! and get this............... it fit perfectly, 100 times better than the jba. so i made my own x, its fn custom dude, how bad ass is that!!!! now that my friends will never happen again!!!! not to me at least!!! but in the end my car didnt start this weekend anythin so we kinda waisted heavy efforts on a project that was gonna ffail in the end any way because i couldnt get teh car started!!!! oh well better luck next time!!! tahnks van, i really appreciated you helpin me out, hope your car turns out this perfectly!!! minus the whole not runnin thing!!!lolololololololol!!!

Sounds like something that would happen to me when I work on my car. Glad you worked it out. Have fun taking it back off for smog though...

no welding of parts too the car nor parts on the car!!! i think its the dumbest thing in the world to weld up exhaust, it just makes your life harder in the end!!! and we marked the pipe then welded on the ground!!!
