Default Just got it today
Tanabe MT!







I cant wait to install it this weekend. Hope it will turn out great.

Now I got a question. I only got 1 gasket from the package. It fits the connection between right and left muffler. What about the connection to the OEM pipe? I haven't disassembled my exhaust yet so I probably dont know. Do I reuse the original gasket?


Thanks!

you can use the old gaskets but gaskets are cheap. You might as well change them since you will be taking the old system off. Its kinda like when your underwear is dirty, you can either turn them inside out or get a new pair. up to you man.
