Down pipe question???

I did do a search but couldnt find anything. Just finish installing a downpipe on a friends wrx. But what do you do with the rubber hose that hits the downpipe? How and where do you re-route that hose.

We need a bit more description than that, what kind of hose is it, and where is it hitting the DP?

He means the drain hose that comes out of the firewall above the downpipe. Basically you can just cut it off close to the firewall, or find a way to tie it back away from the downpipe.

Actually just relocate the hose holder bracket to the other hole. The other hole is 3 inches below the orginal hole.

If you come to the toys for tots drive, I can show you where it is.
