Default U-bend

Hey can anyone tell what I need to do to get rid of the restrictive u-bend in the stock exhaust set-up?

ZZP sells u-bend delete pipes or you can just measure the diameter of the pipe before and after the ubend and buy your own scrap pipe. Just clamp it up there.. Or weld if you have the option.

If you go the "scrap pipe" route, youll get the 2nd o2 sensor code tho unless you weld a bung in and thats where ZZP's pipe comes in handy..

Another option is to just buy a whole DP as the inlet necks down pretty small also due to the double wall.

Certainly a much higher cost going that route if you intend to keep the cat though.
