its an angle mount exhaust...thats how they come, it allows a more straight through design and i think its looks nice

i guess if you really want it straight you could take it to meineke to get it bent??? i dunno

EDIT- it should mount outward though, not inward

Hey HUBB IMO the exhaust is crooked because the flange from the exhaust piping that meets the cat/test pipe is the wrong angle. bring it to the muffler shop and tell them to undo the bolts. let the exhaust hang there and you'll figure out what needs to be modified.

i ran open header to the exhaust shop with the exhaust hanging......then they measured it up, made flanges and bolted it all up......so i think the exhaust was hanging cool......maybe im trippin
