Default Pypes fitment and products.

Okay well I ordered my third pypes product. A set of violators with over axle pipes.
I have just been reading reviews and may just sell these when I get them instead of dealing with more fitment issues from pypes.
And Im curious has anyone ever installed these WITHOUT any issues? And had any luck with them lining up straight? Is there any hope for these mufflers fitting right or should I just sell them new?

I installed the axle backs on my car with no problems. They are made in China though so quality control might not be spot on with every set. This is part of the reason Pypes products are so much less expensive than the American made exhaust products.

Pypes are usually approximate in fit, despite some people having good luck with them.
Their clamps are junk though and need expert tweaking for a leak free installation.
I much rather go to a good muffler shop...

Good for you.
Double check for tightness in a week or so...

And?

Japan generally had horrible quality until Dr. Deming changed that in the 80s. Who says China is absolutely horrid with everything? It's metal pipe!
