ok..i have a 96 nt with a greddy evo on it. now one day my girlfriend was driving it and mangaed to back it into a curb. now when you have a 2 inch a drop...a curb can do alot of damage...and it did. she managed to bend the pipe on the muffler and destryoyed it. now this is my problem. i have been trying to replace it with an axle back. every single axel back i have seen has had 3 bolt holes on the flange. now for everyone that has the evo.. you know that the flange only has 2. can somebody please tell me where to get a muffler with a 2 bolt flange on it. i really dont feel like getting a whole new system.

Just cut off the old flange and weld it to the new muffler. ;)

i would if i still had it.

angry parents+lots of parts lying around=one very full trashcan

You will have to have a flange welded if your going to reuse the greddy pipe.

I would try calling greddy and see if you can get an axle back for an evo.

A muffler shop with the right materials can do just as good a job as any brand name import part vendor. A welder is a welder, anything else is just bullshit trying to milk you of your money.
