It is just the overpipe. It's the smallest exhaust section but does have a wicked bend. Thanks for the info, I will look up midnight23's build.

Sure thing. I have a 3 inch downpipe, with a flange that tapers down to 2.5, followed by a 2.5 inch turboback. I had a hell of a time fitting my own overpipe I...I have no earthly idea how people fit a 3 incher in there.

That's what I've been hearing man. Only Nameless and JDL have 3" overpipes for sale but Crawford I think has one for their turbo. Treadstone is the turbo I went with and they stopped supplying their 3" overpipe. Everyone is saying the overpipe fitting is a nightmare, sucks that they didn't design that area with more room.
