850/V70: Downpipe different RHD/LHD?
 
Is the downpipe different on RHD and LHD 850/V70 cars?

Just see some like iPD saying theirs won't fit RHD cars?

if it's the down pipe your looking at they say it wont fit on RHD because it will hit the steering shaft but you can make it fit by denting the pipe as others have done.

Mainly because IPD caters to the US market thus meaning their drive shaft and steering rack in positioned diffirently.

But then again why would you get overpriced Junk from IPD? There are many reputable Exhaust dealers here in the UK. An example would be Flux Fab

Is there any issue with the likes of BSR, TME, Ferrita, etc.?

If it's just a matter of a bit of "coaxing" to make it clear then it might not be too bad.

Haven't come across FluxFab, will have a look (y)

Found there Facebook, looks like really good kit.

But no updates since end of 2019 and not answering messages.

Do you know if they're still in business?
