turbo/exhuast question

I'm about to put the HX35 on my truck, i was wondering if you can use the 2nd gen 4" downpipe to connect to it or do i have to find someway to fab up the 1st gen pipe. i have everything that came off of the 2nd gen, just wondering if there is enough room to fit the downpipe.

you have to cut and fit it all, the stock 3inch dp fits fine but hits the front of the t-case so that area has to be shortend to fit the wiggle pipe for around the t-case and so on, make sense

i think it would be really easy DP should fit with not much issue depending on where your trans crossmember is might have to go above or below it. but i know 3 inch clears the fire wall
