Will a helix DP fit onto a Skunk2 exhaust
I'm not really sure if this will fit correctly. But the Helix DP has a bellmouth and I'm not too sure about the fitment of the skunk2 exhaust. All I know is that it'sa 3" exhaust. Here's the link to my exhaust

Paul doesn't like Helix because he says they all fit like crap. Funny thing is, my helix that I had fit perfectly 
The bellmouth on the DP has absolutely nothing to do with how the catback bolts up. The Helix is a full 3" and if the Skunk2 is a full 3" also then they will bolt up.

Well I have a question for you guys... general question... If i'm going to buy this thing used, what parts will I need? (not talking about tools)

I wanted the Crucial divorced wastegate downpipe so I sold my v1 helix. I'm not arguing that there aren't poor fitting helix pipes, I'm saying not all are poor fitting. Isn't real world experience better than a picture or two? My experience was that my pipe fit with no issues. If you prefer pictures I can get 3 of the helix on my buddy's car, that'll cancel out your pictures and then give us 1000 words in favor of helix.

Ok, so I finally got my CBE and I found that it didn't come with any of the extra parts like the gaskets. Does anyone know what I exactly need to buy for my CBE besides tools? And are most of the CBE stuff and DP parts available at common auto shops?
