The first time I removed the engine belly pan I carefully sanded down all the bitter edges.

You have the FP for sale.
I have the Catback for sale.

I already have the HKS Legamax Premium catback. I bought it from the same forum member that sold me the HKS front pipe. I decided not to use the HKS front pipe because I want to keep one cat in the system so my car doesn't smell suspicious when I go in for emissions testing, there's a cop cruising behind me, etc, so for now I decided just to use the stock front pipe. I'll upgrade it later.

Since I'm bored, I decided to use my recently acquired OFT to install the stage 2+ tune.

Yeah that is why I changed my out to an invidia catted FP to keep the smell. Which by the way I have for sale also if you are interested. Its keeps the piping at 60mm all the way through to match up with the headers and catback.

One year free replacement.

Good luck on getting your free replacement. Short of you emptying your battery acid out and just filling it with plain water, walmart customer service won't exchange batteries. I almost bought a battery at walmart for this reason, and there's 100's of complaints that they alway deny exchange on grounds that it charges and the battery is still good.

I think its a case of YMMV. I've had a couple of batteries swapped under warranty, no issues at WalMart. They do check it but it doesn't seem to be an issue as long as the tester fails it.

Isn't the stock system already 2.5 inches/60mm from the front pipe back? I thought it was just the over pipe that was 2.1 inches or whatever?

60mm = 2.36" Most Japanese exhaust are this size
63mm= 2.5 " Most American exhausts are this size

The one thing I didn't measure front the stock FP diameter. I remember it was tiny still in front of the cat. I think it gets closer to a 60mm pipe near the catback. These are all "outside Diameter" measurements.

I know both the HKS FP an Invidia FP inside diameter match up with the ID of the headers you got. I measured somewhere in my build thread.

Many people mix all kinds of exhausts with different piping sizes. The key is to match up the ID sizes so that the velocity remains consistent.

Nonsense. Just get the biggest shortest pipes. If you can shoot 4 inch pipes straight out the hood, this is best

No pipes at all is the real answer.

I think there is a conversion error here?
