I found this 3" DP on cragslist. buyer says its FWD but fits AWD (idk how the hell that makes any sense in itself, then if would be called fwd/awd. anyways...)

I said it shouldnt fit b/c I have a DRIVESHAFT making it a AWD obviously, and that would be in the way of traditional centered exhausts systems.

So then I did the ritual searching of tuners and talk. Found at least one thread/post where someone said they did the awd/fwd swap themelves. I doubt it b/c looking at the megan racing site, the 2 look different clearly.

Maybe they bought a AWD mislabled as FWD? Im trying to get the guy to take more pics, Ill post as i get them. The first pic looks like it might just be AWD (appears to not have the pre cat s-curve, just a slight bend, like the megan racing pictured)
Pic order:
AWD
FWD
Craigslist

Looks like a winner! Heres the pic w/ o2 housing pointed up...

Im 100% convinced its awd. please confirm...

And he wants 120. ( know PR is $125 shipped... and megan is $150)

I wanna pay 50 tops.

Even looks like the cat is clocked correctly also... 110%

How much do ebay ones go for?

Just to clarify..The DP bolts up to the o2 housing..Thats just the inlet pointed up on the DP..

Ebay ones you can get for under 100 shipped some times..Some are more tho..

You can't sell something for whatever you bought it for..I would offer 50 myself even if it's never been installed..

## right i typed too fast, I meant "o2 housing side up" as in the side that connects to the factory o2 pointing towards the camera. Thanks for the confirmations, and for the offer opinions, I hate sounding cheap, but... well... im cheap, (i mean if a cheep=hustler :cool: )
 
Just grabbed it. cool/uncool thing is that its 3" all the way through. I hope the bolt holes line up to the o2...

With that in mind, i will have to make a test pipe to funnel down to factory cat back size. anyone know of a place that would sell such a piece? (prefer just metal tubing, I can weld it up to flanges/extensions)
