Default Anyone know a source for new sleeve clamps (connect DP to catback) for Milltek 3'' exhaust?

I was just informed that the stock 55mm sleeve clamps will not fit. Does anybody have a source for a replacement? Thanks!

NAPA carries band clamps but they may need to be ordered

Is it a full 3", or does it taper. ECS has OE type clamps up to 60mm.

Default Here's a pic, it's for the Y-pipe which connects to the DP's. Those two pipes from the Y are not

a full 3'' I believe. However, once they merge into eachother it's a full 3''. So the 60mm (2.36'') ECS band clamps should be able to clamp the larger than stock two pipes off the Y?

I was told the standard OEM sleeve clamps won't fit, but I want to make sure that those 60mm would be ok as well.

Thanks for the info, let me know what you think.

Obviously the one on the left (single 3'').

Default Most aftermarket cat-backs taper to 55mm (stock size) to attach to stock downpipes.

I guess the only way to be sure is to measure them.

Default Thanks, this is for Faiz who had bought my Milltek. I had to torch off one of the adapter sleeves

since it was stuck on one of the DP's and was not coming off. He heard through somebody that the OEM size won't fit, but this 60mm option seems to be a good option.

Thanks for the help, i'm enjoying my ASP trudual...much louder though.
