WARNING: This does not fit oval can mufflers. I bought one and tried fitting it over my comptech exhaust. The oval cans did not clear the diffuser. I probably could have cut it to get it to fit, but I didn't want to have to go through the trouble. They might not even fit stock exhaust.

Hmmm, interesting. I'm gonna hold off on ordering it. Hopefully someone will post with it mounted, and a stock exhaust.

^^^^ those are small for most oval can exhausts..... custom exhaust?
The comptech cans are bigger than that, and I have the Fujitsubo which has HUGE cans, almost same as OEM. I had planned on purchasing this until I saw it wouldn't fit with his comptech exhaust, so there's no way in hell it'll fit mine

yeah...also the comptech Y-pipe sits pretty low...fitment will also depend on how low your Y-pipe is from the chassis.

The piece is nice, but i don't think they tested it on enough cases. AS you can see in the example above, those oval cans come REALLY close to touching it...and even then, the back of the diffuser is not flush with the rear of the bumper. Sometimes the angle of the shots are deceiving.

It'd be nice if APR would just cut the crap and tell us what does and doesn't fit instead of only showing what it does fit. ALL of the pics in their preview had canister exhausts...no ovals.

^^ agreed, although people with single canister exhausts will also run into problems. really it seems like this was designed to work with just dual canister exhausts
