3" cutout, put it right before the bend to go over the axle. there is a little pocket that fits just perfect. and i beleive there is a rubber grommet under the seats someplace to run the wires up into the cockpit.

What is the point in putting it right before the axle Make real use of it and put it right after the y pipe and get some attention

I am waiting for my cutout to come in the mail, and as soon as I do I will be getting a new cat welded on with it. Will there was enough room in front of the cat if when I have the new one put on they move it back a bit?

I will be putting on MAC midlength headers in the future (Can't do LTs). Is this going to work?

thanks

Cameron

well the end of most ypipes is about 2' closer to the motor...not a huge difference...and there isn't as much room.

there may or may not be enough room in front of the cat.
