Borla Catback install Alright I just installed my QTP long tubes yesterday and I had to adjust my cat back alittle and I cant get the passenger side tip on the hanger, I have been looking at it and it looks kinda mean you can see the "Borla" on top and see it shine so to fix it I could just take the drives side off it's hanger, but will that put to much stress somewhere on the rest anyone with advice I know I might scrape alittle more but other than that anyone have any imput?
thanks Jim

It sounds like you have to adjust the I-pipe joints some more. I would loosen eveything rear of the Y-pipe, and start over with adjusting. It MAY be necessary to pull it off completely and trim a few of the joints in order to facilitate enough slack. I didn't have to trim anything on my Borla (with QTPs and QTEC) except at the front of the I-pipe. I used a floor jack to push up at certain spots to gain/keep alignment. I don't think it's a good idea to leave either hanging back there. I'm sure they were engineered that way for a reason.
Keep trying - loosen everything on the catback; use some WD40 if you have to at the joints, and wiggle it into alignment. It SHOULD fit together well.
