Hey Kyle,

I was getting at that too. It must have been easy as there was no mention of it.

BTW, Stillen is great to deal with; very professional and quick follow-up.

Hi Kyle. Glad you like the videos. The installation of the exhaust went pretty smoothly. The only minor hiccup we had was that the H-pipe in the middle kept resting on the cross-brace, which would have caused rattling issues. It wasn't immediately apparent to my mechanic how to adjust the exhaust so that the H-pipe wouldn't touch the cross-brace. He did figure it out eventually, but if you guys make some explicit mention of this in your instructions, along with how to adjust everything, I think that would be an improvement. Also, your kit includes 5 gaskets when there's only a need for 3 as far as we could tell. So we assumed that you guys just included 2 extras in case . . . well, why do you include 5 when only 3 are needed? Actually, let me back up -- can you first confirm that only 3 are needed? I guess that'd be a good starting point! If indeed only 3 are needed, it might be a good idea to state in the instructions that you include 2 extras so that people don't scratch their heads wondering why there are 5.

As far as quality goes, I think everything is top notch. But I've been modding my Nissans with your parts for close to 10 years now, so I wasn't surprised.

This is happened with the 350'z in some cases as well with some aftermarket exhausts
