Default Invidia midpipe doesn't fit on stock axle back

I wanted to do the resonator delete but did not want to completely void the warranty. Therefore, I bought the invidia q300 midpipe from a user on this forum and figured it would bolt straight on to the stock axle back. This was not the case, at least with the parts that I had. It should have been obvious that the Invidia midpipe is larger than the stock one and it would be difficult to install it. I probably could have tried other things to get it to work. The invidia midpipe flange was too big for the stock axle back leaving a big gap and the bolt that holds the midpipe to the axle back was too short for the big gap difference. I gave up and just reinstalled the stock midpipe and will look to purchase the axle back soon. Just a heads up for anyone trying to do the midpipe only.

Invidia doesn't offer just the midpipe, could be for that reason!
