How can i get my cat to fit my exhaust?
What's up HT,
I recently just purchased a header for my car. Basically changing my exhaust system. The setup will be:
Toda Style Racing Header 2.5"
Magnaflow High Flow Cat 2.5"
Stock Exhaust 2.25" (I believe)
Not my question is how will i get my 2.5" HFC to connect to my stock exhaust. I don't have to money right now to buy a new catback so this will do for now.
I don't want to weld them together but is it possible to use something called a reducer? I'm not too experienced so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hmm, I thought the EX/SI shared a 1.75" exhaust, but evidently I was wrong. You're right, 2.25" exhaust piping for all B series motors.
With only a quarter inch difference, the crush gasket between the flanges should make up for that, and you should be just fine. I have a 3" downpipe running to 2.5" piping without a problem. If the crush gasket makes up for 1/2" on my car, it should easily make up for 1/4" on yours

Just wanna make sure my HFC will be able to fit onto my piping.
