Flange that mates up with the cat will also be off 30 degrees or so. So in addition to changing the hangers, you'd have to cut and re-weld the flange.

How big is the piping?

If all it is is a flange that needs rotation and some new and/or modded hangers, just take it and the car to any muffler shop.

Lol let's keep this going. I'm going to be putting an oem msm on my n/a 94 na miata, I am under the impression that I can just add a few hangers and it will fit and bolt up to my cat. I am only getting the 2 rear sections not the dp

it's much more than the hangers. CAT won't line up/bolt up, exhaust route won't work.

Actually we did have to make a hanger spot under the trunk, and make additions to the stock msm hangers and cut and re angle the 2 bolt flange for it to work. But definitely not that bad. Also the msm exhaust made more power and tq from my butt dyno than my old 2.5 magnaflow /resonator made.... Plus no drone on the highway and decent stockish sound. Plus when I go turbo it will be the perfect sound just like oem quiet :-)

You need an NB header and DP for a NB catback to fit. Basically you need an entire NB exhaust to use any part of an NB exhaust.
