Hello all,
Bit of an odd one here I admit. I bought a Borla S-Type for my FK7 quite a while ago. Since then I changed my FK7 to an FK8 but kept the S-Type that I bought. While waiting to get an FK8 exhaust, I thought I'd hold onto my S-Type and install it on the FK8 just to account for how poor the stock sound is.
What I didn't realise however is the S-Type actually has a slightly smaller diameter than even the stock Type R exhaust, being 2.25" instead of 2.3" on the stock exhaust. As I understand it, the connection from the front-pipe restricts down to 2" anyway so will there be any problem with me running this for a while? It's been on for a few days now and sounds great and I haven't come across any problems but thought it would be worth asking.
Kind Regards
