wats the diffs between the 120 backbox:) why doesnt it fit

[Maxxed_Ross]

I'm sure it's exactly the same, but I may be wrong

110 and 120/180 is different. its a different diametre of pipe. i got the end of flange cut off so the bolts could slot in place ( it was a U shape at each end).

the 120 and 180 are the same? im sure they are, maybe that the standard back box is different. the stainless steel one from janspeed is the same for the 120 and 180 anyway

Yep! Cat back system is the same :) not sure why your having issues:confused:

[Stephen]

yep 120 and 180 is the same. Only the 110 is different.

wats diff bout the 110 stephen

[Stephen]

the flanges dont meet up. Hence the need for some adjustment.

Made a wee diagram up. not very good but it shows what i had to do.

It can be done to either the backbox or the bit it joins onto.

1st is original
2nd is where it needs to be cut
3rd is what it should be when finished and bols can join up

easy peasy with the air cut off tool:P
