I wouldn't personally put it in my car like that though

It will NOT fit in the trunk. I helped my friend install an aftermarket and we couldn't get the OEM in the trunk since it's one massive piece. Also, the mufflers had almost a gallon of water in it so we didn't want that in the trunk anyways. Now it's taking up space in my garage.

And for who ever asked about the midpipe, it'll fit but it'll have to come through the trunk bypass and rest on the middle armrest.

Here you go put the stock back on and you can fit the fsport easy in the trunk simple as pie.

chi123 is right. The stock exhaust definitely won't fit in the trunk (and I don't think you'd want it around the leather rear seats), I had to cut mine, so that it was in 2 pieces like most aftermarket exhausts, for it to fit.

Fits in the back seats... trust me. I did. Just wrap the muffler/tips and dirty parts real good.

It's way easier to call up a buddy with a truck. Trust me, you don't want that dirty stuff in your car.
