Default Is Kooks 3" stainless True Dual Exhaust CME Friendly?

Hey everyone!

I have a question that may potentially never be answered but I just noticed that Kooks has released a 3" stainless steel true dual header back exhaust. First off, it looks and sounds gorgeous and im almost sold on it but I really want to know if ill have enough room on the ends of the mufflers to put on 90 degree bends for a CME.

Just curious if someone knows that it has enough room or whether some fabrication is required, or the mufflers are simply too long.

Thanks,
Jim

I don't know for sure, but the mufflers looks like they are placed too far back to make the bend for CME tips. I'm sure they could do it, but custom fab work would likely be required.

FWIW, this is how much room I have between the mufflers and bends:

Looks pretty nice. How much did that run you?
