Do you have pics of the underside of the car? Where is the lowest hanging point and are you using all the stock hangers?

Funny I started singing when I first saw this post...
...Does your **** hang low? Do they wobble to and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you **** them in a bow...

I had the full RNR turboback on my Evo IX and the flex section of the downpipe was literally rubbing a hole in the transer case. I advise you go check immediately to make sure this is not the case on yours. To answer your question, yes the exhaust sits low in the middle.

the fitment sucks.....more often than the rest of us being retards and not knowing how to put an exhaust on, haha.

mine hung so low in the middle that I was driving along one day and an 80-year old man in a caddy pulls up next me, rolls down his window, and says "do you know your exhaust is about to fall off?"

bad sign, ordered the new catback not long after that...

My RNR tbe hangs so low, I once got pulled over because apparently the cop said he saw sparks from under my car and wanted to warn me. Im paying turbotrix $50 bucks to weld on a hanger and pick the middle up.
