Yeah, my only problem is, I was running a tanabe exhaust/midpipe, and I want to just remove the catback and bolt up the mugen, however, the tanabe doesnt use the donut style, its like the flat flange/gasket style. Therefor I have to get a new flange for the midpipe I guess

OHHHH. you didnt tell us that. The Honda/Mugen exhaust uses a donut style gasket and spring bolts to prevent leaks and provide movement. A flat style gasket will leak and burn up. When I bought my car it had a twin loop on it and a Thermal B-pipe. He had a flat gasket on it and it leaked and burnt up. Not to mention the flange was exhaust clamped on and the bolts were regular bolts. I re-did it with a ITR B-pipe and donut gasket with the spring bolts and it's super stylin now.

So I should be good to go if I just get a flange made for donut style gasket welded up to my existing b-pipe. I would just get another b-pipe, but I just paid to get a carsound cat on it a month ago =P
Can't wait to get this exhaust on the car. Sick of this tanabe, and I hate it more everyday I come home and see the twinloop in my room. lol

I can understand the desperate-ness to get the thing on your car, but I just wanna take the time to do it right. Using all stainless welding etc. It will cost more, but I won't have to worry about rust and all that.

Yea get a donut style flange welded on. Donut gaskets are the more expensive/better sealing/professional solution. That's why honda uses them on the OEM setup. It's more durable and less likely to leak, and also alows for movement.

Just picked up my bronze 16" 4x114,3 MF8's... I bought them in Jan. '06
I'm so happy I could cry... too bad my H23 blew on me past sunday. Oh well, JDM H22a rollin' on MF8's isn't too bad either.

Yup APO I'm pretty sure. But even then shipping is gonna be a little more than $50 from an APO in Japan.

I'm pretty sure he means $50 for his services in addition to the cost of the part and shipping, but I could be wrong.
