I can tell mine wont fit right but then again the hanger on the left side wont fit on the hanger
but I ghetto rigged something and the other 2 hangers are just fine and the exhaust tip sits perfect in the middle so Im just gonna leave it and have a shop **** with the hanger when I get my dp and test pipe installed

I installed a helix tbe yesterday as well... awesome sound and great quality... I can't believe how thick the flanges were and the welds are amazing. I still can't get over how deep it sounds everytime I start my car. I ended up moving the hanger that bolts right behind the rear diff to the right by taking the bolt hole on the left of the hanger and bolting it to the right hole in the frame. This moved the exhaust over about an inch which looks perfect for centering the tip. The exhaust is much lighter than stock and doesn't move much at all so I doubt not having the one bolt will make a difference.

I knew i was gonna have fitment issues which is why i left the left hanger off its mount(well it doesnt fit on there )
I figured the price was unbelieveable so $50 bucks if that to re-bend a hanger is well worth the investment in this exhaust
but other than that its a great exhaust from a great vendor who has great customer service

I have helix catback still laying on my living room floor. I got one 5 days ago.
I weighted on my digital scale( +- 0.2lbs accuracy) today. It was 25.6 lbs without bolts and stuff. and with everything including gaskets were 27.2 lbs FYI.

I installed the helix using posted method ( losing 1 bolt from the hanger). It worked so good. It is dead centered now... not low not high. where mid pipe and muffler joins is little too close to fuel tank heat shield though(about half inch gap). It was touching when I moved the hanger to passenger side. I figured out that You don't move the hanger. Just losing one bolt on passenger side does the trick. Oh, I weighted stock caback. It was 35lbs.(with bolts and all 36 lbs)
