people with t-78

Whats did you guys do about the fitment issues with the Lim ? A) make a custom down pipe. B) shave the lim? I had mine shaved, it looks like **** so Im going to put another one on and make me a down pipe. Is there anything else that can be done?

banging in the downpipe that is given with the kit is the easiest thing to do. shouldnt affect the car in any noticable ways. This is what i did, it is also what is recommended by most.

Shave it but do it nice and smooth and kinda even it out. Then have the lim polished. I'd imagine it would turn out looking pretty nice.

Course the downside is then you'll want to polish everything else haha
