Nah mine was good too... a bit of a tight fit but overall no major problems (other than their packaging really being poor). I plan on upgrading to a FI within the year but have no qualms about the CNT exhaust. I've actually gotten a few compliments on the sound.

Oddly enough I had one of the first batches and they cut off the 4th brace after finding they hit... are people saying they are now making them with the four braces again?

Doesn't make a difference. Just an unnecessary hassle for you lol. Doesn't effect the durability of it. Wont cause vibrations or anything. It was just a random extra bracket to start.

edub370 & scionide, the two of you are pretty effen lucky then. Not sure if everyone else had some drugged out, or hung over SOB put their pieces together.

^ haha. yeah I had trouble getting everything to line up too; muffler's hitting my swaybar. I live in a small town; no exhaust shop is open till Monday.

stells370 · 05-07-2012, 12:24 PM

mine went on great no problems at all... but i did have that little cross pipe welded instead of using a clamp

harman.khinda · 05-08-2012, 06:31 PM

I got done installing my exhaust on Friday and really had to muscle the flanges to get them lined up. There's not enough clearance between the mufflers and rear sway bar, the rattle was horrible. It was so bad that the screws holding the exhaust tips in place fell out....

The exhaust note isn't bad, the price point is good, and I really like how quite it is. The fact that they knowingly ship out exhausts that are missing accessories and you have to cut a brace to make sure it deosn't f'up your driveshaft is a major issue with me.

I pm ERZ and got a prompt response they will ship the screw tips at no extra charge. +1 for customer service.

Must be nice.....i already posted the response from them when i didn't receive the bolts at all. I guess they like to pick and choose who they help. Good for you though.

harman.khinda · 05-10-2012, 02:43 PM

^ i was suprised. must have been a different person. try pming them.

harman.khinda · 05-10-2012, 02:49 PM

^ I was suprised and happy.

ERZ response to the brace question and muffler hitting the rear sway bar-

"What you need to do is put a radiator hose and cable tie it on the part of the exhaust that hits the sway bar this will eliminate and rattling noise you might have. What is your shipping address I can reship you 4 of those screws that is not a problem. There was three brackets weld on to the mid pipe one on top and two on the bottom the two on the bottom won't hit anything since it's facing the ground so you saw off the one on top?"
