s8 exhaust on ls430?

Hey what's up everyone. I have a question. So my coworker upgraded his exhaust on his 2008 audi s8. And is getting rid of his oem. And offered it to me for 200. Would this exhaust set up work with my 430. Being a v10 exhaust going on a v8. I'm looking for a lil rumble nothing to crazy.

I am not sure what the size of the Audi's stock pipe sizing is.

But know that the exhaust area under the LS430 is really tight. The stock pipe sizing on the LS is 2.25".
You might also face length issues.

You're better off without it IMO.

if you want to chop it up and use the resonators, and mufflers then it will work. but it wont bolt up directly.

I'm going to measure how big the mufflers are compared to our stocks and how much room I need before. And I was thinking about chopping it up also if needed. It's pretty hard to find any information on a v10 exhaust going on a v8. But thanks guys.

Any recommendations? I don't wanna spend a lot of money and have it sounding like crap. I live in smog restricted California. I've only seen 2 ls430s with aftermarket exhaust in the southbay of northern California and seen them while I am at work. So I couldn't ask what they had
