Hi guys just ordered a decat pipe from h tune the m2 motorsport decat resonator for my honda prelude and the length of it is 35.3 cm join to join, but on my prelude from join to join on the cat it's 49 cm has anyone had any experience with this and how to get around it? Cheers

Should've ordered the adjustable one, then you can adjust length and flange orientation to suit.

Are you sure your gap doesn't measure 39.5mm? What year is your lude? Manual or auto? And does it have an OEM exhaust?

What you've received is a UKDM decat...

I haven't actually received it yet just found the specifications online and it's said 35cm, could be wrong and it could be 39cm and I didn't even know there was an adjustable one haha I'll have a look into that aswell now cheers.
The year of my lude is 2000 and from what I can tell it's the standard exhaust system.

If you do go for an adjustable one be careful not to over tighten the clamp and its probably a good idea to use a little smear of exhaust paste between the two halves of the pipe.
