Depending on if you have the KEP or small car mount, If you didnšt toss the
j tube, it has the standard vw flange on it, and the KEP header has the
flange on it.  I obtained a second flange from kennedy, but small car or
others may have one, and this I welded to a aftermarket hi flow cat
converter and mounted up to the header. I then mounted an aftermarket turbo
III muffler to the cat.  System is suspended by a bracket I brought over
from the right side head.  With my opened up intake and the open flow
exhaust it is a bit louder than a stock system but works very nicely.
