Does anyone have a phot of this installed on their car? Mid pipe and all. I have everything on, not tight and the area where the race muffler hooks up seems awe fly low...maybe I am routing it wrong? Any help would be nice. Thanks guys!

Mine was touching/buzzing also. Not anymore because it's still sitting on my workbench. I suppose someday I may put it back on.

The pipe between the header and the resonator can be rotated and that changes the angle of the resonator somewhat.

I looked under my car to remind myself why I left the brace off. It's the front pipe to resonator clamp that you have 2 choices: 1- make the clamp bolts hang below and easy to tighten or 2- put the bolts on top and harder to get to. I chose bolts hanging down and left the brace off.

PPE long tube header and front 1/2 of their midpipe, with a CoastFab muffler (250x625x17) and downturn where the resonator used to be...exits at the diff. Sound is legal (90-95db range).
