    i just bought an sti axle back and im trying to fit it on to my RS midpipe, why is the STI axle back bent slighty different then the RS?

    Also if anyone else has already done this how did you, or how would u fix it

    It won't fit directly, asked "Beej", he has the sti axel back on his RS (custom midpipe) before he swap it

    I did this on my GC8 with a stock midpipe and the fitment was fine. The only thing that was necssary was to add a center flange to support the exhaust.
