Fitting down pipe - steering column in way

[skinnynphats200]

Yeah I though of this last night and measured it.......too cut the down pipe and weld it back up I would need to cut nearly 2 inches off the bend to allow enough room for the steering column to fit and turn without hitting the exhaust (its only 3" in diameter so it would be super restrictive and would be pointless. I would be just as well running the stock pipe. I will throw the pics up later to show what I mean.

Thought there might be some rx heads on here that have came across this before?

Cheers for the replies

I'm not with ya on the restricted part man, if an exhaust does not have long run, does that not increase the performance? bang the pics up

we tried to fit a down pipe to one before and had the same problem
the down pipe u bought is probably a cheap one and designed for left hand drive cars
we left it off in the end
