im trying to replace the gaskets for the axle back where the 2 pieces connect and the other gasket atthe end. what size gasket does it take?
80mm Flange gasket, give us a call anytime to order replacement parts.We will do our best to facilitate 360 260 2675
Will this axle back exhaust fit my Mazda 3 S 2.5L Sedan?
It will not fit, it is for the Mazdaspeed3 only
>100mm Stainless Steel tips What is the inside diameter?
Inside diameter would be around 95mm
I have a resonator delete currently, will that effect the fitment of the exhaust?
If the flange is in the same location as the OEM exhaust, no.
Will this axle back fit my 2011 2.5L Mazda3 HB?
It was designed for the Mazdaspeed 3, we have not tested it on a regular MZ3 hatchback.
I bought one for a 2.5 Mazda 3 cause I was making a full exhaust and couldn’t make the y pipe. They called asking if I new it wouldn’t fit and I tried before taking out the old rotted exhaust and it will fit.
Can you get this axle back resonated? Like the one on your cat back system.
Call our sales team, we might be able to work out something. 1-360-260-2675
can i purchase the muffler delete pipe portion? (i have the corksport cat back exhaust already)
I already have this axle-back and looking to upgrade to a full turbo-back. Will I get true 80mm piping throughout with a downpipe and midpipe upgrade, or does this axle-back fit to 65mm?
The full turbo back will be 80mm all the way through. The axle back will fit to both.
Do I need to have the HPFP internals installed for this exhaust if I am running the CS SRI now?
For this exhaust no. Only once the downpipe is installed or you have started tuning the car.
Will there be development on a similar axle-back, but single instead of dual outlet?
Unfortunately, i do not see us producing that.
I already ordered the axle-back and have it, but due to rust I now have to go full catback. If I order the mid-pipe only, does it come with the required hardware to connect the mid-pipe to the downpipe (where the spring bolts are located)?
We can make sure that you get proper hardware for it.
Any idea if the axle-back exhaust will fit if using the Curt 11383 class I trailer hitch? Looks like potentially the hanger for the driver's side might interfere.
Not 100% sure if it will fit, but there will be more room under the car once our exhaust is installed. If it fits with stock exhaust, then it should fit with ours.
If i didnt get the mid pipe im i going to hear any sound difference?
You will definitely notice a difference. You car will be louder and have a lower growl to it.
When installing cs axleback to stock midpipe, do i need to remove the donut gasket in the midpipe and replace with the flat gasket provided with cs axleback? I have a slight leak but im not sure if its from the flat gasket being misaligned or the stock donut gasket from the stock midpipe. Overall the axleback is great in every aspect other than the slight leak.
You need to use the flat gasket we provide or you will have an exhaust leak.
Would this fit my exhaust system if it's all Stock?
Yes it will!
I'm fully stock at the exhaust. Would I be running into exhaust leak trouble. Would it fit good with it or do I need to alter stuff
Nope, it is direct fitment!
So this axle back system will fit the bumper tip cut outs on a mazda 3 gt?
We have never tried one. Based on what we have seen on the forums the cutouts are in the correct location.
