They weren't really problems, more just annoyances. Like I said. The mount that's just before the muffler was a b***h to get on the rubber hanger. I had to spray WD40 on the hanger just to be able to slide it on. Other than that, it wasn't that difficult. The only thing I can see bothering you will be the connection with the stock front pipe. Greddy sends you two gaskets for each connected piece, but you only end up using one because the donut on the front pipe keeps slight space in between the Greddy mid pipe and itself. You may not be able to use the stock bolts for the mid/ front connection, as well. I used the bolts that Greddy provided and put a lock nut and washer on the other end in order to keep it tight.

It was all worth it man. This exhaust is aggressive.

EDIT: Also, be aware that with the angled position of the exhaust tip, it will shake at times and it shakes against the diffuser. It doesn't bother me, but it may you. Just an FYI.

Tomei 80 downside is that it uses slip joints... which can be prone to leaking.

Revolution RS is much cheaper but I have seen some fitment issues where the tip has melted some of the bumper.

Personally I would go with revolution rs or hks hi power for costs sake.

Get the Revolution RS! I had a Tomei (60R) and it had rattling issues. Just note that the Greddy hanger at the muffler tends to "slide" on the rubber hanger and you would have to readjust it every once in a while. Never had an issue with a melted bumper considering how close and how hot the exhaust gets lol.

Just got my Tomei 3" Titanium Type 80 installed yesterday with 3" Tomei titanium front pipe and 2.5" Tomei Stainless Steel overpipe and it sounds awesome. It is very loud and even the silencer does not do much. I am driving without the silencer since I don't think it looks good and the car sounds amazing. It almost makes me drive less aggressive because above 5k rpm it sounds like I am going too fast.
