Hoping to avoid further work, I made sure every connection was as deeply connected as possible and when it came time to add the final length of the Borla X pipe I actually had a 1" gap from the end of 60606 and the stock NPP!
The sleeve clamps mentioned by the OP are 3.5" wide, so I marked off a 1.25"of pipe for each side and tightened it down. It's working like a charm, but I was glad I didn't have to make due with a 1/2" less pipe on either side.
Just a FYI for those looking forward to this DIY mod.  |
So should I measure 8" from the muffler and cut or 7" as the borla axle back instructions indicate?
Did you measure 8" on top of the pipe or on the bottom? It's longer on the bottom because of the bend in the pipe.
