i beleive you have to change the hood cause they wont fit under it when closed, not for sure though. other than that should bolt up.

The hood will fit with the pipes but you have to cut a portion of the belly pan out just above the shock tower, and make a set of exhaust manifolds that fit between the cylinders and the pipes. It can be done but it is alot of work. It is probably easier to buy a set of Viper pipes in the classifieds. IMO. Do a search, this is a huge topic every year.

Did you dent the pipes in to get the hood to close all the way? I have mind mocked up without denting the pipes and as low as they will sit and figure i will have to trim the 2nd vent opening to get my hood to close...

NO, I didn't have to dent the pipes, with the bellypan being cut the hood closed, it was a close fit and I had to use reflective heat tape, plus I didn't use the stock SRX silencer.

the bender pipes came with 8 little washers to shim up the hood, and instructions to do other mods that are required, if you got your hands on the instructions you can probley make those pipes fit easy enough. I had to cut my left side hood cable mount off, and install a thin meatal plate over it, and there is a bracket kit to move the power valve moduel ahead about 1.5" and there is another metal plate needed to go on the other side of the engine bay as a heat shield. install a srx rear heat exchanger while your at it too. There are some wires (headlight and pod wires) that are in the hood hinge that need to be moved and tucked out of the way as well. And dont forget the air box mod, and jetting. Other items to buy are the opti cool gasket, and maybe get your head milled down. Or call Heith at Bender Racing and ask for some tripple pipe instructions.
Hope this helps
