Dynomax Super Turbo Install question...

Ok, this is my first post here, so bare with me....

I inherited my brother's '08 Tacoma last year after he became sick...

I love this truck and it holds a dear spot in my heart (obvious reasons stated above)

Anyway my question is, I know the stock Tacoma's exhaust pipe is 2.5". I want to install the Dynomax #17733 which is a shorter muffler. I know I'll need some extra pipe to make up for the space of the stock muffler too. When I cut out the stock muffler will the Dynomax'a flangs slip snugly over the stock piping?

Or is there a lot of play between the two? Reason I want to know is I plan on using exhaust clamps instead of welding it in at least for now.

I've searched for my answer and haven't found it so that's why I'm here.

I can weld, just not very well and I don't want to take it to a shop as I don't want to pay someone for something I can do myself.

Also, I've read that some guys needed adapters?... If so why if the stock pipe is 2.5" and the Dynomax is 2.5" also.

Thanks and I appreciate the help!!!!

For reasons out of your control, take the preferred muffler and hit the local muffler shop, quick and painless and they can handle any issues that may arise.

You might call around, by the time you buy it and hassle with it, a local shop may have the same muffler or a very similar sounding muffler and install it for about the same or less money.
