Will ba-bf exhaust fit too au ute

[abzy]

Hey all, quick question, will a ba-bf xr8 ute exhaust fit my au xr8 ute? I know from owning a ba previous that its basically the same, just not sure at the Y section..

Cheers

Largely depends on your headers, I fitted a ba pursuit system to my old au which had difillipos, it all bolted straight up.

Headers are just stock.. Been offered a xforce twin system that's hard too pass up, but not really after a fiddly fit if ya know what I mean haha I pretty lazy

You might just need to fiddle fart around where it mates up to the headers.
Otherwise that it should bolt up easy enough.

Try it. Worse comes to worse you will need a Y piece made up but I reckon it will probably fit. It will probably be a lot quieter on an AU than on a B series though.

While you are there get the collectors on the factory headers opened up to 2.5" - you will probably need to to make it all fit ok anyway.

also, what are the chances of this not having enough clearance over the diff?? not sure how much lower it is over stock but with my tools in the back its sits just over the tire (stock 17's)
