Okay, I bought a DC 4-2-1 header and an XSPower (ssautochrome) exhaust from a guy locally, and installed the exhaust and i don't know if the exhaust is just shitty (searched to no avail) or what, but it is hitting my subframe where the control arm bolts to, and the hangers on the muffler section are not lining up very well either. Otherwise it sounds beast. I have yet to install the header. Any ideas where maybe I went wrong?

its a cheap ebay catback. Like most ebay parts its a hit or miss. it wont fit perfect i mean hell he probally only paid 200 shipped. so youll have to deal with it or get a new one.

Gotcha. Well for $300 I don't think I got a bad deal considering the header is in great shape.
I'll just hit it with some muffler wrap to stop the rattling until I get a nicer exhaust.


It may also have to do with the fact that my car has been rear ended sometime before I got it... at least the muffler section not lining up.

SSAC had better fitment than the apexi's I've had.

But that's like comparing horse crap to donkey shit.
