Received brand new Kooks X-Pipe - is this normal?
Hi,
just looked into my nex x-pipe and saw this when looking into the back of the pipe.
Is this normal?
I guess I should remove the metal shavings before installation?
Thx

Melting Slicks
Hard to tell from the picture but it looks like weld spatter from when they added the bungs. If that is what it is, it is normal and likely won't come out.

I wouldn't spray anything in there which might affect the cats.
That stuff is after the cats so it wont hurt anything going towards the muffler.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Install the X-pipe and go for a drive.
