Exhaust fitment question...Help appreciated
I bought a 3" themal exhaust for my eg hatch, but have decided to build an ek hatch instead. My question is...Could i get that exhaust to fit my EK with bending or adding a few extra sections? Or would it be a waste and better to just get a new one?
Thanks for the help, Rep points in return

The way I would determine if it will fit, is to jack up the car, and hold the pipes up under it to see where/if I would need to add-in or cut-out piping.
I can bolt in the needed sections right off the shelf from Discount Auto,
and save time and money when it's time to replace 'em, later on.
Welded and/or "custom bent" means you will spend more when it's time to replace 'em. If you get a pipe damaged, you might be glad the damaged section could be removed and replaced.
If you need some help, LMK. I have a D/A nearby.-Bob
