Default Mid pipe?

OK i want and o/r pipe but i have a problem.
I had a custom exhaust system made so it already has a h pipe after the cats. could I still buy one of those shorty mide pipes or will it not work

A bolt on one is not going to work with your setup. You would have to cut out the cats and replace with new pipes. Good luck finding someone to do that for you, unless you have friends with welders.

changing up your exhaust set up already? You just had it installed.

Cheaper, easier to do it the other way. If you bought one they would basicly cut out all the piping till 2 feet before the mufflers. So its a waste of money. Find someone with a welder to do it. There is always some one who will do it.
