Thanks guys! Yes, you can rotate the band clamps. I was readjusting my exhaust today to perfect the positioning and wasn't finished twisting them to hide the bolts when i took the pics.

Haha.. that i am! I didn't post vids since 2form already did that and i'm also a lazy sob. I hope you get your exhaust soon brother!

Oh and here are a couple tips for you guys doing a self install. You don't need any help as i did mine all by myself. It did take me a while to figure out how to get the stock overpipe out as it was real snug inside the subframe. After you unbolt the overpipe, remove all of its heat shields. Put back to original mounting position, then turn counterclockwise and slowly snake it out towards the rear of the car. This may seem impossible to do at first, but with a bit of patience and some trial/error, it can most def be done. Good luck!

You should rotate the band clamp so it does not hang low like that and it will be pretty much invisible. Looks GREAT!

I had sent them a PM about 2 weeks ago with my name, order number, and tip preference after reading the post stating they needed that info. However, I had not been contacted at all (PM, email, etc.) for anything related to shipping before I returned from vacation on Monday of this week. I'm sure they must have been busy with all of the orders, but I was a bit disappointed to learn upon getting back to the country that the order hadn't shipped yet.

On Tuesday, I gave them a call, stating I hadn't heard anything, and they quickly asked what tip I wanted, then told me they expected to be shipping it out on Thursday. The email I received this afternoon was from sender "UPS Quantum View" with subject "UPS Ship Notification, Tracking Number ******************". After re-reading it, I just noticed it did definitely mention Swift Racing at the top.

Short version of my post: unless you received some sort of confirmation already, try giving them a call and make sure they have all of your info. They're definitely shipping them out.

For the record, I'm order #713.

I know I should have probably asked this before I bought mine, but has anyone tried to fit it to an Auto Tranny yet? I installed mine today and I couldn't get the bolt hole for the front pipe to line up. I just removed the bracket for now. The pipe is hitting the tranny fluid pan, but I can only hear it chattering every once in a while.



You can kinda see in the circle where it is touching. Any recommendations?

Other than that, this is one sweet sounding exhaust!!

Same problem, personally, I didn't think they took account of A/T they only have a manual. This is a definite problem.
