I was inquiring as I had a high flow cat on my 5th gen and I was considering selling it to a 4th gen owner. However I have compared my old 4th gen test pipe to the high flow and it seems to be about the same length so in theory it should work. The problem here is that the high flow cat actually has no flanges and it works with clamps instead, where as an actual oem cat has flanges that are set on different angles from each other. So either way, I am not looking at a plug and play situation here on a 4th gen....flanges must be welded, vice-versa.
