i take it your talkin about the cat-back?? if so, dun worry about it too much, u can get bigger ones from any auto store, prolly,

i ended up havin a muff shop weld all the piping together since after about 3 months of rollin w/it, i still had minor leaks...

the U joints they send arent too strong anyway, i mean, htf are u gunna crush the pipes w/them small ass bolts not braking first??

good luck..

Damn, I stripped the bolts that bolt the exhaust to the cat! I've been playing with the thing all day one problem after another.

First couldn't get Greddy exhaust off, went to Minaki and they wanted to charge me $68.50 to just cut the damn thing off!

Went to Fair muffler and they did it for 15bucks :-)

Drove the car home on just the header and cat alone, no bottom end power and the top end power didn't start till 6K (Bummer) Couldn't feel my ass when I got home too.

I'll finish up tomarrow. I went out and bought bigger U Joint things and I'm getting new bolts tomarrow.

Thanks guys.
