Default MSDS 32V headers into stock exhaust w/ 928 Motorsports header X-Pipe

Anyone else have a solution for connecting the flanges from the end of the MSDS headers on a 32V into the stock exhaust? I know that carl has a mild steel solution but I am just researching and have not dealt with this recently.

Our Header-X for the 32v headers is Stainless Steel. You may use it to connect into the stock exhaust, or the after-market larger performance exhaust when they become available again (as shown here).

Thanks Carl,

Do you also make them in Mild steel?

I haven't seen any pics of the pipes connected to the OEM exhaust. Do you have any?

We have never made the Header-X pipe in mild steel.

Sorry, i don't have any pics of the X-pipe installed to a sock exhaust. I'm sure somebody has done it, the stock exhaust fits inside our X-pipe pretty nicely.

Cute. My wife wrapped one of the cats in plastic and sent me a pic "did you order some cats"?

Default Cats on the Header-X

Yes, we kept a nice section of straight pipe after the X just for those who want cats installed. You trim the Header-X to remove a piece of the pipe the length of your cat and then put it there.

I have new compact cats available at 300 cpi.

Default You must be joking

No. Carl's "header x-pipe" does not fit. Not even close.

So so now I get to fight with it to make it move almost a full inch on one side or fight with him to return it without some f-ing ridiculous "restocking fee"

Fool me once (I ordered some crap 10 or 13 years ago and it was **** -oil sandwich with half inch or less oil holes) - fool me twice - I should have known better.

Or maybe the headers aren't all made alike.

What's wrong with that? Looks fine.

You should have seen the exhaust on this car that was shipped down to me. Oh wait, you have seen pics.

Got a set of DEVEK headers. Had a local exhaust shop make an x-pipe. Gave them a picture and dimensions of how big, where the and how the x goes I got from Jim Corenman/Louie Ott. The shop did a great job, fits perfect, looks exactly like what I gve them, and was surprisingly cheap.

That isn't possible in California. Not on a pollution controlled car. They won't touch it. I thought i could get away with this vendor just once. Not.

Does 304ss, when heated, bend? Or crack? Trying to determine my options.
