Just put my ABM on and unfortunately it has the same issue with the left tip being noticeably higher. Nothing a little torch and hammer work on the hangers wont fix but where this is happening with the AB and ABM Works might want to modify their jigs a bit. Otherwise I'm very happy with it. Literally sounds stock cruising on the highway and has absolutely no drone at any RPM but gets good and growly when you step on it :happy0180:

My time was pretty limited today to get the exhaust on so I didnt fool around with it too much, but if I can get them level by messing with it and re-tightening I'll post the results so the exhaust can get the credit it deserves

So very close can't be far off the full system? Any chance of a group buy?

I have to say I would have preferred the left tip just be there for looks with no hole drilled into the primary pipe. I see absolutely no reason for that design, it is certainly not going to improve the power and may even introduce turbulence. I could be wrong though so if there is evidence to the contrary i would like to see it.

Further, if they had just made it a cosmetic tip, they could offer the system as a single exit (on the USDM passanger side) option that saves $40.

i really dont know about the design, but it works and functions. haha!

I think most muffler deletes have this by pass design.

We are not going to make a single exit one since another company is making them already.

Can those with the misaligned tips post pictures? I was close to pulling the trigger on an ABM but now I'm curious about any potential problems. Thanks!
