Thunderfabrications DP/MP question..

Will it bolt up to the Racing Beat Cat back? I think the flanges are different, but I read something about someone bolting it to a stock catback (dont know how he managed that).

IF not, what catback systems will it bolt to?

Thanks in advance!!!

If you swap out the bolts from the Flux capacitor and change the muffler bearings, it just might work.

Don't know though, you might need a beer and a hammer......

somone on team fc3s said that an n1 bolts directly to the tf dp/mp. so I would think that would go for the rb exhaust too.

i've got one of their down pipes, pretty well made i might add. It will bolt to the stock catback with no problems at all. the exit flange bolt holes are oblonged to fit and is the same shape as the one on the cat. the flange is a little smaller than 3" and would need to ported out a little to get the maximum effect with a 3" cat-back. I can post a pic of it installed if you want.

I had my thunderfabrications dp/mp bolted to the stock exhuast for a few months it was fine.

I'm trading my n1 for a RB catback, it should be fine.

I know it should bolt up by apparently they just made mine shitty. I bought mine at least a year ago and just barely installed it yesterday. the bend is incorrect. i had to pull and pry to get it to fit even semi correctly. I have a massive exhaust leak. I'm just going to buy a corksport dp and cat replacement pipe in a few weeks. I hope i can deal with the leak for a little bit. Seems like everyone else has had good experience with them though. I hope it works out for you.
