This would also require you to loosen the Y pipe side of the 45* coupler also. Which kind of sucks because you will need to take your bumper off to get to that unless you can reach up from you front bumper if you have something like the stillen bumper. Not sure. However, to get an entirely new coupler on there you will most likely have to do the same anyways.

You do drive a 370 right? I know the G37 guys have issues with that area.

Yes I am in a 370....but Ive cut enough for the bottom of the Y-Pipe area than I'm comfortable with..Cutting anymore would leave nothing lol.....take a look at reference pics of bottom side of Y Pipe.

Have you tried hairspray on the coupler? It'll make it stick and might solve your problem.

By clocking it to the right just a tad shouldnt require you to have to trim anymore shroud. We are talking like 1 or 2 degrees here and that should be enough to push that pipe closer to the TB.

Just got back from dyno days at ESTUNED, they run a all wheel Mustang dyno. Very hot day in the low 90's when I made my run.
Numbers were 366WHP and 289TQ very flat TQ curve and a ridiculously linear HP curve.
This is with 8 lb boost and very conservative tune.

It's too bad you don't have any baseline numbers. Those numbers break my heart

The Mustang dyno's aren't called heart breakers for nothing!
