I would think that most "Quality" axleback mufflers have a notched slot for the barb on the pipe...

This make the alignment and fit easier for the installer...

My Zoomers have this notched slot, so when the installer hooked them up, everything fit perfectly and clamped up with the proper aligment and spacing to my rear exhaust openings...

FRPP/Borlas have the slot. Not sure about MAC or flowmaster or Magnaflow or Corsa or_____. Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Flowmasters have the slot. Helps you get the position correct. If you have a muffler made "for" that car, it should have the slot.
