> as long as the exhaust piping and routing follow and exit in the same manner. Use the same style muffler its legal for aftermarket. What is illegal is if you put a glasspack on when it the vehicle didnt have one, or if a vehicle exited at the rear and you have side exit or if it was originally single exhaust and you modify it for true duals and etc…:shifty

Direct bolt ins are NOT legal if they exceed the OE rated volume spec, which 99% of them do.
