Hi thanks all ,so tabetha just a 2 inch cut and shut is about all im in for well that should not be a problem ,i suppose the 4wd downpipe is longer to accomodate the gearbox /diff then .Do you think it is best to cut and shut the down pipe or just try and sorce a 2wd down pipe.thanks neil

the 4wd stuff will fit the 2wd car
the 2wd stuff won't fit the 4wd car
there may be a little bit of jiggery pokery involved in fitting it but i ca't think it would need cutting and shutting as esentially it's only going to go a different route to clear the downpipes
that said i fitted a 4wd cossie system to my V6 and it bolted up directly to the 2 pipes so that's what i'm basing my theory on

The 4wd down pipe goes down and round the trans box so not sure if ya just cut 2" off the height then it may hit the gearbox. Not sure what exhaust ya have but if ya check on mongoose site ya can see differance in pipes.
Good luck

i may be wrong, but due to the 4wd and 2wd running different exhaust manifolds, the turbo sits slightly different, as previously mentioned the 4wd one takes a different rout to clear the transfer box, but as a 2wd doesnt have one is should go on with a bit of work

I fitted a 4x4 mongoose exhaust to my 3 dr and it catches the bottom of the gearbox . If you look at them closley you will notice that the 2wd exhaust keeps to the right hand side of the gearbox as the 4x4 goes to the left hand side of the gearbox .
All i did to stop it hitting the gearbox was take a big hammer to it and flattened it about half an inch at the gearbox . Problem solved .
