hey wassup guys . i got a pretty good deal on a APEXi N1 muffler . i was thinking of going to a muffler shop and getting them to weld it to a 3" pipe from the catback . is this okay ? is there anything i should ask him . i think i read something about what they should use when theyre bending the piping . any inputs i would appreciate it very much . and also , if i do do this 3" catback to APEXi N1 muffler ..... will i stil be able to BOLT on an aftermarket up-pipe and downpipe ? theyre 3" too right ? ( godspeed , helix ...... ) thanks alot fellas !

 

I believe that you should be fine as long as the muffler shop does not modify the stock flange location or type. Since it is from the cat- back, it wouldn't prevent you from changing your upipe or downpipe.

 

Make sure they mandrel bend the pipes. Tell them to use at little bends as possible.
