if your talking about the x pipe kit that comes with x pipe and four bent pieces they will fit but require a little modifying you have to add a piece of pipe to the pass side and on the driver side you have to add another bent piece to connect to the headers its what im using on my car to do true duals and for the price you cant beat it for how little you have to do to get it to fit

A universal x pipe will not fit without extensive modifications. I've used a ton of the Summit versions. For maximum ground clearance you need to follow factory Y pipe routing as close as possible.

The Jegs universal X pipe kit is a bad choice. If you want try to use a universal kit start with this. But still will need a least couple custom bends to complete. http://www.jegs.com/i/Flowmaster/389/815937/10002/-1
