Borla adjustable CB with cam and e-coutout vid
FYI, the unit is about 1/2"-5/8" thick, so it will definitely push your passenger tip out. Lucky, Borla has a clamp and sleeve located post flange and you can adjust it accordingly. Unfortunately for me, my exhaust has been in place untouched for a number of years, maybe 6+, and was stuck.
I pulled the post flange tip section from under the car, and attempted everything shy of a torch to get it to loosen up, and nothing worked. I could not even get the two pieces of pipe to rotate, or budge one inkling of a **** hair. This caused the brackets for the tip hanger to be completely fubar. There was no way possible I could get the tab on the tip high enough to slide between the two rubber hangers and get a bolt through. Everything is so out of proportion that the rubber hangers would practically have to bend 50+ degrees just to meet the tab on the tip. I ended up just getting the bolt into only one of the rubber hangers. I think this though is due to poor installation from whoever put the unit on because the passenger tip stuck out farther than the driver side to begin with, and adding this chunk of steel in the equation, brought it out of the realm of possibility.
Before I attempted all that, I had tried several times to leave the tip mount in place, bolted and secure and slip the cutout in between the flanges. The problem here is that the joint would get all distorted and not allow the butterfly to open or close depending on the initial starting point. This is mostly because the previous owner broke one of the flange studs off, and only two are securing the flanges together. Had the other one been there, it may have turned out differently. For now, it will remain the way it is. One day I may ez-out the stud and replace it, and get everything all lined up.
Sorry for the long post, Adderall is in full effect.
