You have to lengthen the mid-pipe just in front of the y(pipe) a bit. And also change the angle a little upwards. Also cut the factory hanger, fab a new one on the mid pipe. Fab new hangers on the mufflers to hang where you want them to sit. But that is pretty easy tho. I will get a picture posted when the forum will let me.
I should also mention that the material that the mid-pipe is made out of is very thin stainless and difficult to weld to. I had to clean the surface good first. I used my miller mig welder with a spoolgun and a combo wire for stainless and steel.
I think that it would be better to use a tig machine to weld this material with.

I just purchased an 08 xt in Blue recently. Pretty much same condition to yours. Nice work on your car. I just did a cat back on mine using 2013 wrx sti midpipe and mufflers. Its quite nice actually. no drone, not loud and has very nice sound. Im gonna get a piture up as soon as the forum lets me. I would recommend a cobb tuning catted downpipe, i know they are expensive (650.00) but, the results speak for themselves. Are you using a cobb accessport? just curious...
