EVO 7 Exhaust Question

I own an EVO 7 RS RHD and I was considering the Bushur Racing muffler replacement pipe.

As far I can tell the chassis & exhaust path is the same as the Evo 8 (US)??

Thanks in advance.

the 7 bumper is shorter than the 8; if you fit an EVO 8 exhaust on an EVO 7, the exhaust will bolt on fine, but the tip will be hidden or misaligned.. nothing a muffler shop cannot fix tho... but my question is since u got a JDM EVO, why not stick to genuine japanese parts to ensure proper fitment?
