How can a company that makes after market parts not pair the components in the boxes properly?
Seems they would have a slight amount a quality control before shipping something out the door..
puzzling...

Good to hear Danger I was definitely expecting the placebo effect response. And I felt this livened up the bottom, mid and throttle response significantly. I was pleasantly surprised that's for sure. I was expecting more noise and slightly less power. More noise was quieter then I expected and power was butt dyno approved

Thank god mine were right I didn't even check each side before the install. I pulled one from the box and said these look good I'm happy and started to pull the car apart. I would have found out the hard way after getting the second CAT out I unwrapped that pipe.

Anyone getting exhaust leaks with these pipes?

I've heard of one exhaust leak with these at the small pipe connection. Anyone else experiencing this? I'll be installing these soon and am just curious if I should get some muffler paste to add to the joint. Thanks.
