Stupid question, will a stock OEM *sport* hatchback catback exhaust fit inside the car?

if I can fit 2x6" x 8' pieces of lumber in the hatch, I'm sure you can find a way to fit the exhaust. Have it split in as many pieces as possible and I'm sure it'll fit.

When I picked up my Type-R exhaust I had to put the front pipe end outside the passenger window. Ended up wrapping it with a large microfiber towel so it didn't mar the surfaces on the window and side mirror.

I'm pretty sure it's slightly too long to put in the car without sticking it out the front window. Honestly I just cut mine in two pieces for transport, there's a section just before the muffler in the pipe that's perfectly straight. It can easily be re-welded or just clamped back together if you have to re-install.

I didn't cut mine, I just folded down the rear seats, folded back the passenger seat, and laid it down muffler side in the trunk so the other end hung out a foot or so through the passenger side window like another user said. Worked perfectly find, just remember to wrap the front end in something so you don't damage anything.
