I'm not trying to sound rude, but the XL series doesn't flow as well and isn't a straight through design like their base mufflers. It is actually a 3 chambered design which is pretty restrictive. I purchased a base Magnaflow muffler and was sent the XL series by accident and after I found out it was chambered, I sent it back.

I don't think they're the exact same size, I guess you're trying to keep your tailpipe and tips in the same spot? You may have to cut or add a little bit of pipe but any welder can do that easily.
