Default Quick question, magnex backbox

Ive cut my standard pipe on my furio and just noticed the pipe on the Magnex backbox is alot bigger in diameter than my standard pipe.

Do i need to use a reducer, or can i just clamp it on to my old pipe?

Didnt want to just dive in and clamp it as it seems quite a big difference in size.

Thanks

you can buy a reuducer but tbh just apply some exhaust putty (firegum) and clamp it up, run it for half an hour at constant revs and it should be fine

you need a reducer if fitting the magnex back box on it's own to the standard system
