Hey,

So, I'm in the process of wanting to completely take out my factory exhaust setup and buy an aftermarket one instead. The only reason I'm doing this is because the exhaust I have now is starting to rust pretty bad.

Where it shows number 9 and 10 is where it's starting to break off and makes a bad rattling noise when I'm in gear.

I'm looking at this setup

But the problem I see is that there is no pipe going from the headers to the catalytic converter. So, if you looked at the first picture it would be number 4 that I'm worried about. Am I missing something? I don't want to use that same secondary pipe.

Anyway, how many cat converters are there on the zenki? Just one? Also, would I need to buy heat shields for this setup,especially on the header so it doesn't melt the master brake cylinder?

Also, do I have to worry about clearance? I have s tech springs with agx.

Help! And thanks!
