I didn't realize the tips I bought were of different size then the pipes I have... The C2S tips ID is 2.5 and the C2 tips ID is 2.25.

What can I use as an adapter per say for these tips? I was thinking about getting a piece of sheet metal 1/8th thick and putting it on the inside of the coupler before putting them on to take up the extra space.

What do you think? has anyone done this before?

 

I think that there is a sleeve that you can buy from the dealer.

I remember taking a set of OEM tips and seeing one.

 

NorthVan, good info - you are a valuable guy to have around! I have learned a lot from you.

Thanks!

 

+1 northvan is always on top of everything too... knows his shiznit

I went to the dealership today, they werent open, well check tomorrow and ill let you guys know

 

if you don't find it quickly fabspeed has adapters.

 

thats what i was looking for... where do they sell these?

 

their tips come with 2 dif. sizes; the smaller about .125. You'll have to call them at 888-646-4945 and see what they want for a couple of them. I've found Jeremy, if I recall correctly, to be pretty helpful.

 

I would simply drive to a muffler shop and have them stretch the outlet to 2.49, or whatever, at which point the 2.5 tips should fit. I had some fitment issues on a Fabspeed muffler for my 996, where the OEM tips didn't fit on the outlet of the Fabspeed due to it the Fabspeed being 1/4 inch narrower. Cost about $10 for them to do it.

Just cut a small peice of a 2.5 inch pipe and have it welded to your exhaust, works perfectly

 

I actually called up Fabspeed and Alex said that he would send me the "crunch rings" FREE!! Not only do they make a great product, but they have great customer service too!! Im very satisfied with my full Fabspeed exhaust and now even more happy that I went with them!!!

 

never seen wheels like that on a 997. is that factory? looks cool like the old turbo wheels

 

im pretty sure those are the stock 5 spoke classic wheels
