Fitting a stock exhaust inside an Evo?

This weekend I'm about to buy a Espelir JGT500 exhaust from another member and he's going to help me put it on. Only problem is, I want to keep the stocker and was wondering if there was any way I could fit the stock exhaust inside my car? Maybe have it stick out the window a little bit?

BTW, If it can be done, I will be sure to wrap the exhaust up in something so I can protect my interior.

Why don't you just take it apart? When you take it all apart you've got four smaller pieces to deal with. DP, Cat Converter, Long exhaust pipe and the Muffler.

Just my $0.02.

It can be done. I did when I got my exhaust installed. All you have to do is lean the passenger seat all the way down, and lie it down diagonally.

It will fit if you break it down. You can fit everything but the longest in the trunk. The long pipe will fit inside the cabin but wrap it really good.

I should've been more specific. It's going to be the stock cat-back portion of the exhaust. I'm just worried about the B-pipe, As the muffler should fit if I take out my sub in the trunk.

Some twine and tie it to your tow hook.

It will be dirty and nasty. Don't want to put it inside your car.

Lol. I plan on wrapping the whole thing in saran wrap and plastic garbage bags. I like to keep my interior clean.

If you wrap it up well you can jimmy it in. Find someone with fold down rears or a truck and borrow their car.

Lucky for you I installed an Espelir and thought i would've had a problem. Just wrap both the B pipe and the muffler in trash bags. Muffler fits fine in the trunk. Recline your passenger seat all the way down and the B pipe fits diagonally front to back.
