fyi when put on it was touching the subframe but my installer APM tuning in Elmhurst adjusted it to not and still line up pretty well from the rear. the sound is amazing!

I just installed mine. No clearance issues at all. It took a bit to align the tips but I was by myself. If I had a second set of hands it would've went faster. Loving the exhaust note and it should only get better as it breaks in.

nobody up for the bonfire/haunted prison?

So, I don't know why.....but I bought a treadmill for my home gym project today (pain cave!) I haven't been able to run for 6 months! After years of running/triathlon/mtb racing I ended up with some nasty plantar fasciitis in my feet. Hopefully, I'll be back at it soon, but I really don't know!

I just have to decide whether I'm going to stick this into my basement budget or put off my Stillen Gen3 purchase for a another month or two! LOL I know how you feel now Zman! I want to get this project done so I can get out more!
