Excellent tip for a low buck exhaust. The only thing I would add is you may want to consider cleaning the shipping oil off the pipe and giving it a coat of high heat/ceramic impregnated paint prior to installation. Since it is aluminized and not stainless steel the coating of paint will help to protect the pipe and extent service life.

Yes it will. But obviously it's just the intermediate pipe, it will require welding of other parts to it.

i figured it would still need welding to the resonator and have the mufflers installed as well...this is pretty cool
