This sux. Something is screwed up under there. The tips looked lined up before but now they are not, and one is out more than the other, AND one of the clamps isnt compressed around the pipe tight even though the nut is all the way on. Im pissed. Back to the shop.

Thanks. I deleted the muffler with a pipe going to a Y pipe back to the dual srt pipes over the axle with the resinators and tips. The alignment is off on the tips so leaving now to get it fixed. Sux, but oh well, at least its on now.

Oh, and it sounds sick right now. To me it doesnt look as good as having an srt bumper and the tips through the bumper, but I think it looks alot better than a single tip on the right side like before and I know im the only WK around me with dual tips now. And now everything is symetrical back there, zen like. haha.

HOLY F guys............. I just went to the shop, the guy was walking out the door when I pulled up and I got out and told him theres something wrong and the tips are off. He then says, oh it must be the hangers in the back so go to the dealer and get the parts then come back. I swear to f-ing god he said that to me. I flipped out, told him to fix it, his work is crap, yada yada yada. He told me to get off his property or he would call the cops, so i told him to do it so we can get it all on record, then he pussied out and got in his car and left. Im filing claims in court now, this piece of shit scumbag hack job.

just loosen the clamps and align it yourself. Like I said....they are hard to get perfect

That loose clamp is already tighten as mich as it will go, unless i take out that piece in there between the ends of the clamps maybe? Im about to go out, get it in place then drill screws into that clamp and hold it tight. But the tips are not correct, not centered. They are about 1.5" off from the center of the bumper, and also one tip is noticably out more than the other. I gave the guy $200 for shit work.

So now i have the tips rubbing and making a vinrating noise, this douchbag tells me to get the right parts then come back. I asked him the hell he said he can install it if I needed other parts. WOW, im pissedddddddddddddddddddd

Go give a shop $200 to install an exhaust only to have one side drop then he tells you to go get parts and come back. Im sure you would be cool with it, but not me. Dont tell me you can install an exhuast but then tell me afterwards to get other parts. BS

Nice job Timmy!

The only thing I can do im thinking is drilling screws into both pipes at that loose clamp to hold it in place which should work. But im still stuck with the tips being 1.5" off from center and ones out more than the other. Unless someone has any ideas?

The left side resinator dropped down because the clamp is not tight enough even when I fully compressed it myself. And the tips are now rubbing. Plus the dam tips are not even centered to the middle of the bumper.



Note the tips are not at the same distance outwards.



I even told the guy 3 times about the holes in the frame is where the hangers should go, and he welds on that crap shown in the pic thats not even correctly positioned from one another. This is the parts he told me to go get from the dealer, the hangers, so i told him its just metal studs that are tacked on thru the dam holes.

it took me awhile to get my borla perfect just take some beers out and work on it yourself. I was sitting outside with a piece of wood sticking it on both sides of the tips to bumper to make sure it was exact lol. I also used some metal wire to pull the tips to the right a bit and tied it off to the frame. Looks perfect now. Goodluck! Oh ya looking good!
