I pulled this from the cracking exhaust parts here in this section to highlight info on my crack-proof GTM C14 H-pipe as sold HERE. It also serves as an outline/instructions on how and where to cut.
I am now also offering all-new GTM headers and mid-pipe connectors HERE to mate to the GTM H-pipe then onto your (our our) mufflers, for those who don't want to cut their stock headers. The new mid-pipe will use your front heat shield, and can be used with your stock or aftermarket mufflers and rear heat shield.
