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.

I'm reviewing them for garageline. Should be good. That's a mod that's been around a loooooong time. Kinda like a lighter flywheel. It should result in quicker acceleration
