Hi Ryan, I picked up one of your 3" TBE the other day and had a few comments/questions. First off, install went fairly smoothly... I recommend connecting the slip pipe over the muffler before you hang the muffler.... and fitment was PERFECT. You had a crush washer included in the install package which was not necessary at all being that all the piping lined up perfectly. The only problem I had was this: the brackets for the back of the downpipe do not line up correctly. One is welded at a 90 degree angle from the DP, the other at a different angle... I am confused why it is like this being that the factory downpipe had its brackets both symmetrically at 90 degree angles. As you can imagine, only one side of the downpipe brackets actually lines up with the EVO's hangers. Plus, the factory DP had the nuts welded to the bracket, making them useless with your setup, i.e. I can't use the factory bolts unless I buy the correct nuts, which means I have to go to home depot, buy 2 nuts, jack up the car again to install 2 nuts. If you could clarify what is going on here that'd be great. Also, any word on when those o2 housings are going to be in? FWIW, its a VERY nice system for the money and will spool your turbo VERY quickly.

02 housing are in stock now. I will pm you with the downpipe or whatever the problem was because there is some easy adjustments that can be made as well.. Glad the system fit perfect and went smoothly.
