Question Question for those with SSS Catbacks

I just had my SSS Terminator catback installed a few days ago and been having a few issues. Both of my issues are on the passenger side, drivers side is fine. Has anyone had problems with the overaxle scraping at all? I've brought it back for adjustments, still hasnt gone away. I have also been having problems with the pipe just before the muffler touching against the gas tank cover, it has a nice melted spot on it above one of the passenger side corners. Just curious if anyone else has had these issues and what was done to fix them. I will try to add pictures to this later if i can get under the car again today.

Originally i had a fitment issue (i bought one of their first systems years ago) on the drivers side, but after replacing a small section everything was fine.

yea, i went back under the car today and tried forcing the pipes to where they wouldnt touch but how the hangers connect is making it pretty much impossible to move them. I'm starting to wonder if maybe that pipe before the muffler is the wrong one or maybe bent wrong. I'll be bringing it back in again tomorrow to see if i can get them to do anything about it.

I've had nothing but great success with SSS Exhaust. I've had it for almost 4 years now and it still looks brand new. I realize there have been a few people with customer service issues (and fitment issues) but from my experience they are every bit as good as Borla in terms of quality. The sound is better IMO.

If the sound and quality is just as good, then I don't see why you should pay more for Borla. I have no complaints about SSS, I still get compliments on the way it sounds, and it brings a smile to my face every time I hear it.

I just added my SSS and they sound better then the SLP Loudmouth i had and the quality is also better to me. The 4'' tip really fills in the back area of the bumper. Customer service SUCKS but the exhaust is really nice. They fit perfect both sides and only took me about an 1 1/2 hours to do the job.
