Magnaflow catback Sound and Fitment issues. Please Help
I just got a Magnaflow catback form ebay for 290 shiipped.
After i put everything together, I noticed that the resonator and b pipe was hanging VERY low. I mean 1-2 inches off the ground. Then I noticed the muffler is off to one side and is touching the bumper. After check around for other fitment issues, I started the car, damn this **** sounds nasty, to loud and farty like. I don't know what is causing it to sound like this but, i think there may be an exhaust leak somewhere. I need your help asap or i will be forced go back to stock. Thanks for reading this and your help..

you obviously didnt install it right
did you use the sping nut bolts or whatever they are called? the springs had to be compressed for reinstallation
use vice grips

Should I use the stock bolts with the springs? Because I'm using the ones that come with the exhaust.
in the last pic you can clearly see that the axle back part is not even bolted up. i can see in side your tubing. thats why it sounds like **** its not even flowing through the muffler

You need adjustable rubber hangers for the muffler to get it to sit evenly in the exhaust tip groove in the bumper. Did you use the gaskets? You definately have a leak if it sounds like ****. It should have a nice quiet, deep tone. The only spring bolts (that have nothing to do with this exhaust) are from the cat to the downpipe. Honda used spring bolts there instead of a flex pipe.
