No panic yet. We played around with it quite a bit on install day. My mechanic suggested a slight adjustment in that top bend because there's plenty of room to other side. We'll see how they look Thursday. Thanks Mike.EcoPowerParts said:I emailed Paul, he stated to loosen bolts and adjust, we haven't ran into this before. If that doesn't work we'll make a new pipe, coat it and send it out.
For now dimple the existing pipe of the bolts being adjusted doesn't work.
Thanks for that, I bought used, I wonder if PPE will sell me those bolts...ZSHO said:It sounds to me that you have used the oem bolts to connect to the midpipe and clearly the LME DP dont come with upgraded bolts correct? because my PPE catted DP came with bigger bolts which gave it a more secure fit,also need to re-torque those bad boys after a while due to the heat expansion,another note would put some grease around the hangers that hold the DP AND EXHAUST,its very hard to track down a rattle that transfers,BTW were you able to get new gaskets X4. BTW after installing two sets of DP and a Corsa exhaust these little thing truely do matter,best of luck and keep us updated and pics below for comparison. Z Figured be nice to help out a fellow member with all my available inputs and feedback. Z
