Sounds good to me then man ;) what about the bolts gaskets and the rubber hangers, are they all reusable from the old exhaust system to the new one with decat? :)

Mine only used the b-pipe and rear rubber hangers for the exhaust .. might have a sweet decat downpipe for sale .. didnt foul the wastegate and had a massive bellmouth .

Alright man, well the scorpion one im looking at is the full system has the decat down pipe and mufflers :) but it is all already bolted together so I can just reuse the gasket and bolt it to where the only one comes off the turbo? And then use the hangers and it'll be done pretty much :')

Reusing is find ;) Is one of the mufflers supposed to have a clamp on it? -see photos below- the drivers side has bolts but passengers side doesn't have anything?

Sweeet :) and yeah it's got both of the hangers :) the bit im worried about is the bit from the from the top muffler to the bit where they meet, how is that held together? Isn't it supposed to have a clamp on it?

Nahhh, you see where it branches off and it goes to the drivers side and it have bolts holding on the muffler? Yeah on the passengers side what the hell is holding that one on? I see it's got something pushed on so it goes together but what's to stop that falling off? Shouldn't there be a clamp around that little part to hold the muffler on the part that branches off?
