yea the stock exhaust is like 1.75".

I heard it is 1 7/8". I can guarantee you that the MBRP is a larger exhaust.

there was a fitment issue on my 05 zx3. The front most flange on the cat back has a pin that fits into the straight pipe and alligns it perfectly. The wonderfulk people at mbrp did not make a hole on their new flange to fit into the pin on the car. I had to grind off the pin, and that is not a good idea, because the pin insures 100% alignment between flanges.

Stock size is 50mm. Most if not all after market performance exhaust kits are larger than stock.

Thanks for the heads up. Could I not simply drill the hole myself if this is the case with the exhaust they send me?

Also could someone tell me the diameter of the tip of the MBRP?

OK I've recieved the MBRP but the box says 00-02 I think it's for the 2000-2002 cars. Does it make a difference? My car is a 2005 duratec.

 

[Shadowrunner]

it just might make a difference. call them up and ask them

Might have to mod it a bit, I had to.

What year do you drive and what did you have to mod?
