If it doesn't fit you can have it modified to fit at any decent muffler shop. Every setup I've had has required a bit of tweaking on a pipe here and there. In the beginning, the stock Y pipe was cut off when the duals were added. Now when I add different mufflers, in order to get a perfect fit, it seems like one of the pipes always needs to be bent a little. It should fit, or if not, be very close. If it needs adjusted, a muffler shop shouldn't charge you much to get you up and running.

Everyone that I know who has done the cat delete on the 4.0 has regretted it.
