Yes Bob, it was my fault for installing it on jack stands in my garage and the only two people with the issue are me and @gdrider77 because we are lazy asses and installed ourselves, didn't use a lift or pay a "professional" to install it....
Ok there you have it. Happy???? Yes? Good! now go sleep well.






P.S.

(Nevermind that I TOOK IT TO A SHOP after I couldn't get it fixed at home and that shop ON A LIFT had to HAMMER my Overpipe because it would just NOT clear the frame...)

There's been talk about doing one of your kits here. Like I tell all my customers and like you, we're equal-opportunity installers. Doing a Vortech setup now, and looks like someone else came thru with an Innovate kit too!

Cheers!

You learn something new everyday Bob, so here is your lesson of the day!

I am the SE Region moderator (as my title states right below my name ).

That means that I am not able to modify, delete, move, create etc.. ANYTHING outside of the SE region. So no, I can't touch these threads (posts).

I am having the issue right now with my stock mounts. have not upgraded those yet.

The over pipe i have is a FA20club pipe. I have also tried a Perrin pipe i had access to and same alignment issue.

Dont take the MEME personal, just found it funny.

Not trying to start anything here, but for sake of argument and to clarify. I did the install in my own garage, with jack stands. When i had it tuned, the shop noticed the issue and they were the original ones to point it out to me on the lift. They air hammered it slightly, and even went as far as to remove it completely and reinstall. So technically it was installed on both jack stands and on a lift. And problem is there from both times.

Once again, not trying to start anything, just stating that it was there both in garage and shop under different circumstances. In the shop they tried a different (perrin) pipe that they had to rule out the pipe i had, and same issue. So that led us to believe it was more in the angle of the turbo discharge pipe causing the problem.

Just trying to get information out for others to be informed, not to bash anything or anyone.

@AVOturboworld

Could you elaborate your connection with Drift Office? As a customer considering your product, what Drift Office was doing in this thread was quite unprofessional as a vendor that I associate with the kits you sell (due to initial US testing). What is even worse is that he was not secure enough to keep his posts here. He deleted them so people could not see how he acted.

We're separate entities. Funny there's no mention of the OP and his behavior but I suppose that's to be expected...

Urm. It was suggested that I delete the posts...
