Miltek/japspeed combination???

Been offered a miltek centre and backbox but wondered if anyone would know if it would fit my japspeed down pipe?

Fwiw I have a twin scroll with a Miltek down pipe mated to a Japspeed centre and back box. It's not a perfect fit but good enough.

Slight pull on one of the hangers and was catching slightly on the gearbox. This was sorted easily enough though. No big issue. This was on a twin scroll although the Japspeed was off a single scroll iirc.

Ah ok thanks. Been offered a few bits but wondered if the downpipe is a regular size and any centre and back would fit?

If the Japspeed downpipe has an S bend in it it should fit ok. If its got the straight section with the flexi then its slightly longer and can cause issues.
