The Roach

That's how he reeled in the Mrs! The shorts and the E body! He wears short shorts! Lol

It gave women easy access to my manly manhood.

Ran into my first snag ….. with the TTI exhaust. The tailpipes fit, but the H-pipe fits like crap. When it comes time to get it running, I’ll just get a pair of cheap cherry bombs and loosely bolt them onto the collectors. In the spring, I’ll just trailer it to the local custom exhaust shop and let them work their expertise.

Good Idea! I bought the X pipe setup from TTI. Didn't fit either. I let the muffler shop deal with mine too.

Do headers and exhaust EVER fit???

What Fran said below.

You didn't put it in upside down?

I was thinking that too. There is an R and an L stamped into the metal.

The right side pipe, with the muffler on lines up reasonably well with the hanger while the left side is waaaaaay off.

He's just an iconic trendsetter.

That sucks. Have you talked to TTi about getting a different H pipe? Sounds like it was bent on a Friday.

I don't get how exhaust never seems to fit.. i know the cars weren't built to the tightest tolerances but it's not like a engine is 2" to the left by accident or the muffler hangers are in the wrong spots completely....

I bet it was hot and humid that day being on the East Coast.

I really think he was trying to impress Submit.

Going through them would all be estimating. It'll just easier to go to the pros that I have dealt with before.

Sometimes the best thing to do is cut a flange off and mock the system up simply rewelding the flange in a perfect alignment.
It will maintain the rest of the system as made.
Ask me how I know.

I’m with you there, they can see firsthand what you need.

FYI

Take a picture of your shiny new polished ceramic coated headers because the finish will dull from heat cycles and you can't polish it back.

Drop it off and pick it up done. The last thing I have always done is to have the exshaust system professional installed. Whatever it takes to make it fit perfectly. Looks great Mark!! Can't wait!

Had the same problems with the TTI stuff, its a good start but one size does not fit all and you should be aware of that going in. With some judicious welding and cutting it can fit as well as any custom system. It's the difference between buying a suit off the rack and having one tailored. Most exhaust shops can't mandrel bend and that in itself can make all the difference. Like anything else in this hobby, the end result is from the investment of time and money.

Someone should have told him the zipper goes in the front!

Even the tailpipes are going to need some tweaking so the hangers hang like they are supposed to on the factory mounts.

Try swapping sides with the hangers.
