Nameless High Flow Cat

[mistawho]

So, i bought the whole package, axleback and all. For some reason the Nameless High Flow Cat won't fit anywhere.... I think they might have forgotten to ship additional parts? I've tried calling Nameless for the past 2 days, no answer Can anyone help me? It's definitely the wrong part or they forgot to ship additional parts.

If you're talking about the downpipe, you have to undo the passenger mount and raise the engine a few inches for it to mate to the stock header. (Assuming you got the non factory fit one). It does not fit on its own and requires a bit of wiggling around. Once you have it connected, you will see it fits.

The top you show a catback (axleback and midpipe).
The bottom shows the nameless axleback and then the nameless front pipe (which you have backwards by the way).

So the stock midpipe hooks up to the axleback from nameless and then from there the front of the stock midpipe hooks up to the back of the front pipe from nameless and then the nameless front pipe hooks up to the overpipe up by the front of the car.

Hope that helps.

You reuse the stock mid pipe, the nameless pipe you have that sort of looks like the mid pipe actually replaces the stock front pipe/over pipe (bolts to the header).

I questioned the fit when mine came in too, just remember to jack the engine on the passenger side about an inch

This. Don't even try doing it any other way. Undo both engine mounts (just 2 bolts) and jack up that engine.

Echo. Not even worth the frustration trying to get the OEM overpipe out without the engine jacked.

I removed the heat-shield when I did mine. After that, it came out within 3 seconds.

Yeah, the tiny rusted ass 10mm bolts are nearly impossible to get to; especially the one on the top of the overpipe. Just jack the engine up; easier, less frustrating.

Yea well, that was recommended from the shop and it worked fine for me, what it comes down to whos car it is and how THAT owner wants to install it.

The guys at my shop tried all of this.. I think Nameless sent me the wrong part or something? I think they sent me the "Manual" version.. I have a automatic. LOL! Even though I informed them multiple times.
