I think so. I took it back to the shop so they can look at it. Should have an answer by tonight.68_GT said:couldn't tell anyting by the video... are the pipes rubbing somewhere ?
Its like the gopro was designed specifically to catch as much wind noise as possible. Even the A/C sounded like a hurricane before I turned it off.14SHOCAR said:The car was too noisey to hear anything.
I would have loved to have done the job myself but I am to busy during the week and I wanted to be ready for Milan tomorrow.ZSHO said:My first set of DP was done at a buddy's shop and took roughly about two hrs because of the improper location of the bung for the 02 sensor and had to modify it on the stage 3 DP,the second set took me about 90 min to install the PPE DP which was alot easier the second time around,found that the passenger side is more difficult to remove and install and clearly should be performed first,the drivers side is pretty simple and should be done last,both sets of catted DP came with bolts and never had any issues with clearance,BTW i'm just the type that likes to watch and learn and waited until the car was finished,guess thats the ocd in me.LOL.

I feel bad and had no clue you were experiencing fitment issues,know the SHO/FLEX have the same fitment but the XSPORT is some what different,did you ever talk with Mike.B about the fitment. ZSHOnUup said:My OCD has me not liking the fitment. Had to grind a chunk out of the little cover that goes around that shaft in pic, pipe is too close to allow for the bolt to go back in. Also had to grind out the 02 sensor holes because they were not clean enough to accept the sensor.

I wouldnt hesitate and wait to long,would be great if Mike from EPP would chime in .SHOnUup said:Nope, was sort of waiting to see if anyone else ran into this. My mechanic said we could try and force it back, but didn't want to affect the turbo mounting by doing so.
Pipes sound great, seem to perform well, just tight. Really liking the ceramic coating to fight the heat getting to the shaft leaving PTU now that these aftermarket pipes don't come with a heat shield like the stock ones had right there....besides the color of course.

Mike.B is a very cool guy which i have been accustomed to his fine service and support. ZSHOnUup said:Not much to do I think. It is what it is. Next Thursday is coilover install. We're going to check everything out then when it's hoisted up. See if there's excess rubbing then.
