Exhaust issues w/ new RS*R
Well, recently it came time for me to get a quiter exhaust, so I took off the bo-jank Megan midpipe and muffler shope rear section off my hatch, and put on my RS*R Ex-Mag. Only I've run into somewhat of a problem now.....
When I took my old exhaust off, it fit almost perfectly flush with the bumper, and was in all the hangers basically straight up and down, with a perfect fit. I go to put the RS*R on, and I got the exhaust into two of the five hangers (with what hangers I did get on leaving the rubbers at a 45 degree angle), and it's probably an inch to an inch and a half too long. What gives? I really don't want to cut a section out of the midpipe just to make it work, and it's rattling bad enough to REALLY get annoying. Outiside of spending $70 for an omni adjustable test pipe, I really don't know what to do.
FWIW, my car has some kind of random two piece 4-2-1 header, and a stock DA integra cat on it, both of which fit PERFECT on a DA Integra, so I'm guessing the header is for a DA.
Help me out here guys.
