Hey Homie,

I definitely have 2 sets of left and right pipes. The Flanges are oriented correctly, but the bends vary somewhat from pipe to pipe...

You should be able to do this with ONE SIDE to ensure you have the correct bends…


See how the FLANGE IS DIFFERENT? That IS PROOF POSITIVE you have the CORRECT PAIRS.

Good luck with the install. The best way to not have a problem with fitment is to mount loosely and then, once everything is "in the air" torque it down good and tight. Drive it long enough to warm up and then re-check tightness.

There will be some added sound and low end torque increase but your car will definutely 'breathe easier'. So will you!

Enjoy!
