Default So why is my Apex WS exhaust about an inch too long?

I just installed a WS on my hatch lastnight and I had to first remove my heat sheild and that bitch still hits the gas tank strap.
Is this some kind of cruel joke? I mean come the **** on...

Any body else have this problem? I'm assuming so since the used exhaust had all kinds of rub marks in that spot.

I guess I could get an inch taken out at a muffler shop.

Oh, I've got a simple b-series swap if that helps.

it's probably because of your swap... if i understand correctly.

i swapped a B18C into my '92 hatch and the Integra header was a little bit longer than the old Z6 header so my exhaust was pushed back a couple inches. all i did was cut a small section out by the flange and reweld the flange back on.
i also had a CarSound, which was a little bit longer than my stock cat, so that pushed the exhaust back also.

Well, good to hear it. I just wondered if anybody else had dealt with this annoyance.

I'm just getting a bit sick of aftermarket **** not fitting all that well.
