Is the diamond eye pipe bigger than what comes with an mbrp turbo back exhaust?

That would be the frontpipe, the frontpipe clamps to the downpipe off of the charger.

well 3 hours later and its in, driving home i've noticed a considerable drop in egts, like 75-100 degrees. also the egts drop way faster now too when i let it cool down so thats an added plus. i will get pictures posted as soon as i get around to downloading them haha.

Good to hear you got it in. It's hard to believe that little pipe can take so long to put in, but it is a pain.
