You will reuse the oem donut gasket and there was an enclosed exhaust clamp.

Be sure to check the entire box, I know packing peanuts are prone to swallowing small pieces.

I also believe I enclosed new bolts for the midpipe in the midpipe box since that was shipped separately.

There was no packing peanuts in the midpipe box. I couldn't find the exhaust clamp so i had to go to my local shop to pick one up.

It's fine Brice, all I need to do now is get the correct midpipe bolts. I'll check again if the bolts were supplied in the box. If not, is there anything you can do for me?

If you came up with an exhaust hanger especially made to specific length for S2's that you could throw in for a few extra $, you would probably sell quite a few of these since there is a LOT of interest in an out-of-the box bolt-on catback that is decent and affordable. Just a thought.

unfortunately hangars aren't the only issue when it comes to S2 exhausts. The location of the axle back flange/joint becomes a problem when trying to fit an S1 exhaust on.

Well then, Brice needs to come up with an S2 version LOL. I think more than a few people would be interested in it.

I agree, I am using the TXS with extended hangars and although it seats beautifully, the flange in the axle back is maybe 3 inches off the ground lol .... luckily it is literally under the diff so I only scrape on major dips in road grade.

Yeah the bolts should have been in the MP box, I may have put it in with the exhaust not 100% sure. They were in a plastic bag.

Of course the bolts should only be $2-$3 for everything happy to compensate you if you cannot find them.

Using longer hangers isn't quite the right fix but will work, because it lowers it and can still scrape as Paimon stated.

It is something fairly easily sourced if the S2 user does purchase the exhaust.

Liability and risk associated saying it will work without issue is not worth it, the end user just needs to be aware it can work but there are potential issues.
