I've had one of these 2g awd downpipes sitting around for a while to replace my old rusted one. I finally got off my butt and tried to fit it up to my mofugas/certified exhaust. It in no way, shape, or form fits. The neck and flange fits the o2 fine, it tucks nicely between the transfer case and oil pan and then it goes all wrong:
The pipe hits the subframe near the steering rack. The hanger lines up, but the pipe takes a bend down toward the ground at the hanger. From the hanger back, the pipe is bent down 10deg an ends up with the flange hanging 6-8" lower than it should be.
What gives? I know people have used these with good success. Did I get a dud or am I missing something? It seems like they bent it backward. Too bad I've had it for 6 months. I'm sure I can't try and return it anymore.
