yeah i had to cut and weld mine a good bit and im still not satisfied, its not really something that can be sold in bulk due to differences from car to car. If I had a lift and better tools Im sure I could make it perfect, but I dont, and I cant afford to have a shop do it. The passenger side is fine, the drivers side the cat was way to close to the car, I did a good bit of cutting and moving around and now it rubs the torque arm every now and then but its better than before when it would start nailing the car at certain points and sounded like a jack hammer on the drivers side floorboard.

I had no problems...forgot to mention that I have a lift. It just takes lots of adjustment to get it right.

Do you want a pic from underneath the car? I can take one right now, which will basically just show how it looks from the ground, or do you want a picture of it from underneath on the lift?

I have one on my car and I don't have any fitment problems . I mocked everything up BEFORE getting underneath the car to make sure everything fit together just right . After getting it installed where everything fit good I tightened the clamps just tight enough to hold it together and I drove the car REAL easy to the local muffler shop and had all the joints welded . I can easily remove and reinstall the y-pipe by myself without any problems . Also while I had exhaust system off I installed prothane engine mounts so my exhaust does not bang the bottom of the car at all .
