Re: exhaust system question

Exhaust systems for the two cars are not interchangeable because the P5 is shorter than the sedan.

but, is it possible to have yourself or a mechanic extend the piping so that the ehaust system would fit?

I imagine stretching the pipe would significantly weaken it. If you really want to do that, your best bet would be to cut and weld a new piece in.
