Midpipe

Does anyone know of a company who makes a 3" diameter aftermarket midpipe as a direct bolt-on replacement for the OEM midpipe? I've already replaced my rear axle-back(muffler) section of the factory exhaust, but now I'm considering replacing the midpipe fron the cat all the way back to the Magnaflow muffler I installed.

Might be easier just to get it made at an exhaust shop since it should just be a straight pipe.

I searched Ultimate Racing's website, but the only midpipe I'm seeing that they sell is for a 04-05 Ralliart, whereas I have a 2009 Ralliart. Can you provide a link to the product you're referring to from their website?

It is on the main Exhaust page for the 09+ Ralliart. They don't have a picture of it, but I know that you can order one. I spoke with them not too long ago about this.

Ok, I found what you're talking about, but their midpipe only works if you already have their rear axle-back exhaust. Here's the statement that I just copied and pasted from their website regarding the midpipe they have available:
NOTE: Not compatible with OEM muffler section

Sooo, unless there's another pre-fabricated product out there somewhere, I guess I'll have to get one custom made by a muffler shop.

thats just if you have the oem rear axle back part. you should email them and ask them if it works with the aftermarket axle back exhaust you have.

If his current axle-back connects to the stock OEM mid-pipe, then the UR mid-pipe wont work with it either.

This is only 65mm which is about 2.6 inches. So if your looking for a full 3 inches this is a little small.
