Downpipe is hitting shift linkage?
 
I have this setup on a 98 Integra and the DP is hitting the shift linkage. It is not a huge problem since its the stabilizer and not the actual shifter itself. Just wondering if anyone has run into this and what they did to resolve it?

Ok, just want to make sure before I fab up a test pipe and mount the I/C


Also is gonna be a streatch to get it to line up to the exhaust line-to-line

i had this problem with afi also.
i orgianlly bought a afi ram horn style mani from a friend.
but i didnt have a downpipe.
so i had afi make me one with a v band connection to the hotside.i had a 5 bolt hotside with a plate/v band converstion thing on it from my old set up.....

this lines up horrible..not afi's fault considering there vbanded downpipe was made to work in conjuction with a tial vband hot side..
so i took my coversion vband plate thing off and had a v band welded directaly to the hotside wich helped fitment alot.

but it was still hit my linkage....

the only thing i could do was chop up my brand new 350$$ downpipe...FCUK
so i had to make a cut right at the bend for the oil pan and reweld it....
it was so close too..


well your going to need a test pip made itake it..this will solve your "line up" issues with your exhaust
