is the flex pipe needed? are there any problems replacing it with normal exhaust pipe?
i haven't seen the car yet... but here's my deal...
got my GW sfc welded on - and of course the exhaust was rubbing. so i took it to a custom exhaust shop and they agreed that a small cut or bend in the pipe would fix it. he also said the weld on the back end of the flex pipe was cracked and he'd re-weld that.
well i get the call today that it's done and didn't get to talk to the guy. but was told "...i had to replace that piece".... so right now i don't know what he did. i know that flex pipe is hard to find (yes it's in the faq i know) so i can't believe he had a spare one there at the shop (maybe he did). hell - for all i know he's not talking about the flex pipe.
but i'd like to have my info before i go talk to him in case i need to argue with him. is the flex pipe needed???
thanks!
