Default MAC Y-pipe fit?

Installed the MAC Y-pipe (cat deleate) last night. Does not seem to fit very well. The bracket just before the y-pipe to intermediate pipe does on match up, pushed out about an inch. The Y-pipe to intermediate pipe slip fit is not tight with stock clamp. The brace just behind the trans that goes over the torqe arm and Intermediate pipe does not fit anymore. Have to take the Z to a muffler shop to fix a broken stud, see what they can do.

? Others with the MAC Y-pipe or headers run in to any of these problems?

Does run better without the cats and flat spot in the old Y-pipe. Much better on throttle feel and sounds better to. Put the rear o2 back in and no check engine light. (yet have sims coming) Does seem to have more fumes out the back.

Thanks

Most y-pipes require a little tweaking to get right.
