I suggest you simply tell them that you want both tips to be symmetrical and that if they aren't, modify the one tip so that it looks like the other one.

A torch and a BFH will usually "fix" them ...... just ask Bubba ......

My shop had no idea. They said something like "unless you wanna bang on it with a hammer, but I dont wanna do that"

Got it, thanks man!

Will modifying one tip by using a torch or making it shorter cause the sound to be different in one over the other?

Just ask for another guy in the shop to "adjust" the exhaust tips .....

Guys I am new to this whole modding life, but I read posts about people after installing a header and other mods do something called tune their car, or set the ECU.

Will i need to do this for a catback installation, or is it just a simple install and i'm done?

Thanks brah!
Sorry for the many questions, but does installing the Corsa catback exhaust improve the cars performance,HP/torque, even slightly? Did you notice an improved throttle response?

Nope. In general catbacks only slightly improve performance on turbocharged cars with restrictive exhausts. And even then you wouldn't really notice it.

That's fine, thanks!

As for the misalignment of the two exhaust tips, is it noticeable? Can you see it from a couple feet away? Hahah my fake OCD will go nuts.

It's very obvious to me from any distance unfortunately

Wel..Shit! Do you think you can take a close up picture when you get a chance? It'll really help me out.

Took this pic last night. Fairly obvious here. Keep in mind, they're not all like that
