Default ARH header issue

I have 1 3/4 ARH long tubes on my 2008 c6 Z06 right now but I want to know will a full borla catback connect to my ARH LONG headers?

I probably shouldn't say anything because I don't know for sure () but I think you need the ARH specific x-pipe between the headers and exhaust.

Hopefully if I'm wrong it will stimulate someone to give you the right answer.

You should have an ARH midpipe (with or without cats) from your headers going back to the existing catbacks, correct? Then it's just a matter of matching pipe diameters between your midpipe and the Borla inlet pipes. Can't see why there is any problem.

So basically all I can buy is a axle back?

That's all you need to buy. The ARH midpipe will have a 2.5" or 3" outlet. Buy the same size Borla.
