Default Exhaust Size

What size is the flange on a standard cat'd downpipe. I have found a nice decat and it has a 3" flange, is that the same as standard, i.e. will the rest of my zorst fit on on it!?

Yeah, I think most 3" downpipes have extended 'long' bolt holes so that it can still fit OEM sized 2.5" centres' bolt hole positions. In this case you need the 3" gasket, whether it's the wirewool cone type i.e. if the centre has the OEM 'bowl' flange... Or, if a 'normal' flange, then you'll need the 'diamond' shaped flat style gasket.
