Answer from fabspeed :

These parts not interchangable as the sizing is different between a turbo and non turbo model.

too bad I thought they could be just welded

Any reputable exhaust shop would be able to make this work with your car. Check around for adapters if you want to bolt it in yourself.

Thank you for the answer

I won’t do it myself, the exhaust shop will weld the pipes or bolt them ?
I thought the pipes were larger and no space to make them fit

the tubing and end sizes are different ?

can you please confirm

A good exhaust shop will have everything needed to attach differing diameter tubing. Tell them the car you have and the diameter of the Fabspeed part you want installed. They should be able to tell you if they can do it. BTW the Fabspeed muffler package that I put on my 2012 V6 Panamera came with adapters made by Fabspeed. The adapter was about 6 inched long. The larger end attached to the Fabspeed tubing and the other end attached to the OEM tubing.

ok thank you so much !

fabspeed answered me again it is possible :

‘’ Of course, anything is possible with the right tools and skills for fabrication. Please though, be aware that when fabricating and welding this tubing is 304 stainless steel and has to be welded accordingly. TIG or MIG welding only. ‘’

Hello,

I installed the fabspeed xpipe and put new tips, removed 3 resonators but the sound is very raspy... I know it is a V6 but I’m so unhappy with it... check the video

will a muffler delete be a deeper sound ? (And way too loud)
Thank you

Like I mentioned before, muffler delete would give you a big bump in sound. If it's too loud you can always reinstall the factory mufflers then procure an inexpensive aftermarket axle-back system.
