Default How would I install a Milltek exhaust (2.5") replacing my existing custom 2.5" exhaust?

Normally the exhaust comes with a reducer to you just clamp one end onto the milltek and the other end onto the existing piping.

But I have a custom exhaust that's 2.5" downpipe back. So I think I will be using my old 2.5" flex pipe and some 2.5" piping. Is there a way to join the Milltek exhaust to this using a clamp or will I need to get it welded?

Thanks

Default Yeah but I have FWD and ou have Quattro. If you want I can sell you the muffler...

resonator, and the tips (if you like them)

The muffler/resonator is Magnaflow (which is what everyone with a custom exhaust gets) and the tips are Thermal R&D. All pieces are stainless.

Drop me an email if you're interested: agarwal@stanford.edu

Thanks!

Shouldn't be a problem to get it clamped on I think. Where did you get your downpipe?
