Xpipe for c5
What is the best xpipe for stock c5 that can connect to catalytic converter without having to wield it? Because all of the parts Ive search requires wielding such as bb bullet xpipes. Any out there no wielding requirements just bolt on xpipe to stock headers?
Thanks.
Thanks.

The stock exhaust pipes from the stock exhaust manifolds back to the connections to the over the axle pipes are all one piece - including the catalytic converters. I added a Bassani X-pipe to the ‘00 coupe I had and it was not a difficult or expensive job for a muffler shop to cut the stock exhaust pipe aft of the cats (with careful measurements of course) and then weld in the X-pipe. This is assuming you want to keep the cats in place.
