Lots of exhaust systems are sold without flex pipes - Fast intentions, Invidia, Greddy , Injen, Stillen, etc. I understand your concern, but think given the success and high regards for the above brands its not as detrimental as you think. Also the OEM Nismo H-pipe is like 2" ID at most, vs a full 2.5" here, that alone would be decent flow improvement.

I mainly wonder if this suffers the same slip joint leaks reported on their Y-pipe. Can anyone speak to that?
