It just didn't make an sense to me at the time to reduce, make bent tubing, another reducer/flange to the Purple Hornies. Extra weight, more parts to break, and God forbid if someone I knew saw them installed like that :lol:. I had the older version too, straight 4" from collector to the turn down. The little dust storm they always set off when you lit up the hot rod :lol:.
6 bolts and you were uncorked :lol:. Probly worked out for the best, with the turbo mufflers. All my 16 year old brat needed was noisy pipes attracting more attention to her. :lol:
