Default Guys with f4i's and slipons.... need some quick help

Anyone that has a slipon on their f4i, could you help me out and post some pics of the midpipe? I need to see how it mounts to the header, and the bends it has in it. The sooner the better too (I'm watching a few auctions)

I ask because I have an f3 with some aftermarket header, which the collector is not at the stock angle, so my two bros midpipe doesn;t work. The f4i header has the collector in about the same spot as mine, so I am pretty sure the f4i midpipe will work, but I'd like to look at as many pics as possible before I fork over the $$ for a new slipon (my two bros is cut wayy short).

And I tried to have an exhaust shop make me a custom bend, but they used 1.5" pipe, did shitty work, and it just is a piece, and didn't do what I asked. So if you can help me out, I'm appreciate it

First off, thanks for the quick responses guys. That looks about like what i need, I think it should work. The f4i header comes straight out the back, although it's slightly offcenter.

The stock f3 header is angled up and to the side at about a 45deg angle. I drew a line to show about where my header ends. Here's a pic:


Mine, from what you can see, is in this pic:


It comes straight out the back, and doesn't have that little bend to match up to a stock f3 header. It was off a full system, but I don't know the make and I've had a hard time finding a match.

The f4i header has a collector very similar to mine. I think it will be close, but should work. Or am I just crazy? Or maybe I could just buy a junk f3 header, and saw that piece off and have it welded to whatever slipon I decide to buy... but thats prolly more work than it's worth.

Ok, I found a full Erion system for an f3 on ebay, and the header is pretty much just like mine. So the midpipe I need has to have bends just like the one in this pic:


And then I found a guy selling an F2 midpipe, it's in rough shape, but the bends look like they should work. And header wrap will fix that ugly rust:


You guys think that midpipe looks right (I may just have wishful thinking)?
