Hi there,
I asked this on AF1 and one guy suggested I loosen the headers and twist the whole system....which I haven't got around to trying, but I thought I'd ask here in case anyone has any further ideas, or experience....
Basically, have an Edwards Mille with twin Akra's and the (looking at it from rear) left silencer sits a lot further out than the right (probably 3 inches further out), whereas the right tucks in more neatly. Tried to twist the link pipes etc, but didn't really do it, it just raises one side up as it pushes it out.....and the only thing that helped was putting a couple of 1/2 " spacers between the right bracket and subframe, this pushed the back out maybe 1 1/2" by the time the angle reached the tip of the can. I didn't feel comfortable with this as I thought it may stress the joint to the headers.....
Don't mind if the left tucks in more, the right goes out, or the whole thing evens up, as long as they look straighter at the back.
Anyone sorted this issue? Or should I chill and just live with it, and accept it's the way it was designed.....:dunno:dunno
Would help if every bugger I come across didn't say "why are your exhausts offset then?"......:banghead:banghead
cheers guys, Rich
