Why not buy a flex pipe 2" and curve it by hand to take exhaust gaz to the rear.
Just spot weld it to the ex side and you should be able to go without being much loud.

I think if he was able to spot weld a peice of flex he could make his wn DP becuase he would have a welder. I have a fealing that is his #1 problem for not doing it himself.

I cant believe we are having a discussion about this. Here are some options. Why dont you just call the damn tow truck and get it towed there? Find someone with a AAA card, and it would be free! Otherwise find someone with a truck and go rent a U-Haul towing thing and two it to the welder's shop.

C'mon buddy, its not that hard. Just a matter of doing it.

I had the same problem with a freinds car. it was a pita. 3" from the flange to the back of the compressor. I made it fit with no beating or bashing. it just takes some imagination and jdm bends. :) https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...c/DSCF0194.jpg

Im not the one whining about how to get my car to the welder. I don't mean to be an ass, but use some common sense.
