Default Stainless back box onto stock middle section

Hey, is it possible to do the above?
The stock exhaust i have fitted would have to be cut in lenght as the next joint
is quite a bit futher down and the stainlees joint is just off the back box itself

Would the stock pipe take being cut into and be able to get a decent joint with the stainless back box?

Any comment appreciated

yeah can be done, might be wise to go on utube and watch some grease monkeys, in action so you know what its all about, if both pipes are same size you will need a slipper joint,, bung your local garage £20 and it can be done without blood loss or an eye injury to yourself. money well spent, if your new to this
