new exhaust muffler

last summer a buddy sold me a dynomax 4in muffler/straight pipe. got a heck of a deal on it, 40 bucks in great shape, looked up the part number and it was like 180 bucks or so. still havent got it on a dangit i want it on! only problem is the muffler on the ole pig now has the offset pipes. this one is obviously straight through lol any ideas outside of buyin expensive adapters and such? i know ill have to buy some anyways to go from stock to 4, i didnt know if i could buy one to do both jobs
thanks ya'll

It'll work, there's enough slack in the system.

Most likely if you put it on there the Tail pipe will either be touching the body or pointed at the ground.

You're going to need like an "S" pipe to make it right.

Been there done it.

Nope I straight piped mine with out putting a s-bend in it there only off/set like 2 inches so it's not that bigga deal.

Heres how dad had his 90 with a 4 inch magnaflow.

That's odd the last 5 1st gens we've done it too with STOCK FACTORY exhaust systems you have to use an S pipe or the tail pipe gets all messed up.

When I had my stock exhaust I removed the muffler and just put a straight pipe in and had no problems.
