I mean if you did not have pictures, just make sure they know the length you need. The configuration of the pipes don't matter as long as its the right length. If they find some other way to fit them, then fine. Our way for the MRT seems the most compact for that brand.
Ok thanks for the feedback I'll just print out the pictures to give them something to reference to be on the safe side.

Ok. Just remember the length you need, that's the important part and you can't tell how long it's suppose to be by looking at the pictures. Oh and remember to cap it off.....kind of important too, lol.

That's the toughest part I think is figuring out the length. Plus that app is like $25!!

28" plus adjustable end caps like the Solo pipes and you'll be set. Then you can tune the length for your particular situation.

Do some reaserch and check out the Solo Performance website for their V6 Camaro system with the j-pipes. If you're gonna be a Camaro modifier, you're gonna have to do some work on your own.

I drove Aton's ride yesterday and I LOVE the sound!!!! I have the MBRP catback and will be doing this to my car, just getting tired of the sound and as a daily driver with over 68,000 miles on the exhaust its time for a change.

Thanks Anton!!

NICE!!! The difference is amazing! The sound of the motor really comes alive because there is no drone to mask it.

You're welcome, Cisco. And it was great being able to hear my car being driven since no one else drives it but me. Sounds better than I thought from the outside lol.

Hi there, are the 29 inches from the spot where it is welded on till the end of the pipe?

I do not know what you mean with "in the middle of the pipe"

thanks for the clarification

Do i need to order two different pipes for one exhaust.
Only this one? Summit Racing 622002 Exhaust Tubing, 180 Degree, U-Mandrel Bend, 2 1/4 in. Diameter, 4 1/2 in. Radius, 16-Gauge, Steel, Each

This green line is what I mean by the center.


If you're doing a single muffler (im assuming not a Camaro?), then yea, you'd need two.
This was one "U" cut in half, then the other welded to the end of it.

gonna do this in the spring, just got to decide whether to get the SOLO j-pipe or get the three U-Pipes. would it be cheeper for an exhaust shop to weld them together or is it all about the same?

What is the total cost of the pieces needed for this and what did you pay for install? I wouldn't mind getting rid of the drone on my MRT V2
