hi jon,im very interested in the blitz centre section as i have my eye on the blitz back box from nick,ive tried to read your add but it made my head hurt
i will want it to fit to my standard downpipe so i guess i need to weld the flange back on??? or will one of them sleeves do the job??? its to fit a classic wagon so i guess it will fit with no probs?? wereabouts are you as if your not to far i could collect,should be going to nicks to collects wheels+bb if we stike a deal so if your near him or on way back maybe we could sort something out

Best way to make it fit would be to weld the flange back on. The sleeves are 3" so wouldn't fit your standard downpipe, but the flange would. My understanding is that centre pipes on newage and classic are the same, and the only difference on the back box is an extra hanger on the rear.
I'm in North London (Watford), but I go away on business first thing in the morning. I'm back Friday PM. Happy to sort either collection or post

The blitz is a 3" cat back system, so the whole system is 3" ID pipework. The step-down is to allow it to fit the factory exhaust as the subaru system is 2.5" ID. 3" will reduce the back pressure to a degree, but for big power the factory downpipe will still be a restriction. My system is now 3" from the turbo all the way back

hello mate,sorry to be a nusiance but im gonna pass on the pipe,after getting it welded up and trying to track down a 3'' back box it would probably work out cheaper to buy a system,in fact i just bought one off the forum,sorry to mess you about but its just easier for me this way,hope you understand
