Do yourself a favor and order the MWC loop. I wish I would have known about it before I ordered my Kooks TD's. It goes over instead of under the exhaust so you don't have to worry about shimming it with washers & longer bolts.

MWC loop with no issues whatsoever. It's a kick *** piece from a kick *** company.

In the pics, as you can see, it's not bolted in yet, but once I bolted it up there was a good amount of room.
