I don't get why the dump pipe needs a flexpipe? Thats alot of scrilla for a log mani. I don't think BMC charges that much now for one of theirs. But hey whatever works. Damn 390 for a log mani is cheap? Thats a new one for me. Maybe I'm just too cheap.

I think he meant $390 for everything minus the turbo.

I am thinking that straight part is for a E-cutout, and the flex part goes to the catback, or the other way around,
I planned to do something like that because I dont plan to get a 3" catback anytime soon.
dont you just hate that wait time for custom made parts? I decided that I will ditch my blox manifold for a ramhorn style, so I cash in all my excess parts on ebay to fund the manifold, and I am still waiting, he said its been finished since last week tuesday buy he will ship it today, and I bet he will use the cheapest way which will take a month, me second race is on the 2nd of june to redeem myself, and I will I could have that manifold to be there.

If you've ever tried to merge your WG back into the exaust, the flex section will make more sense.
Its always a pretty big headache to get everything welded up perfectly so that both the DP and WG bolt holes line up. Even when you weld the WG-return w/ everything bolted on the car, the ---- likes to move around by the time you take it off next time. IMHO.

My next mani is gonna rock a baller flex pipe on the WG.
