After OBX header installed..
recently i had bought: Brenspeed tune and BBK cold air intake as well as a set of OBX headers.. The Tune and CAI was amazing.. I'm running the 93 oct tune.. I could tell alot of diff between the stock and the new tune.. I finally got the headers, so off to th, to the installer it went.. Headers, Stage 8 header bolts, O2 Ext., and motor mounts went to the installer, with the car of course.. Installer said like everyone else has, driver side install was a p.i.t.a.. BTW, i went with the LT H with Rezs.. When i got the car i really couldn't play with it cause of all the danged rain we have had.. After i got it out when we had a half day dry spell, oh man.. They sound great.. I could tell the more power was there.. It was amazing.. i'v had alot of compliments over it.. Very well worth the upgrade imo..
I have only got 1 or 2 problems after the install.. Luckly, i have ZERO play in the steering.. However i have a slight pop in the steering as the dead center of the steering pattern.. no biggie to me.. The other is however a never racking sound at times.. Not out side, but it sounds like it coming from the dash.. Its not a squeek, it not a rubbing, i don't know how to describe it.. It happens at diff ranged of rpms.. There are no leaks but could it be a clamp stretching out after the header is warmed up and rattling?? I have no clue on this one.. Any suggestions to check would be great..
Since the install my exhaust are very uneven in the rear of the car.. How do i fix this hanger issue??

Its not a hanger issue, just crawl under your car and loosen the 4 bolts behind the h-pipe and wiggle the clamps around so they are nice and loose. Then go to the back of the car and hold your tips where you want them and have a friend tighten down the nuts on the clamps. I am assuming you dont have an axle-back exhaust yet, but if you do, you might want to loosen those bolts too.
As far as the rattling, it might be your headers rubbing the steering shaft. I would crawl under your car and check the clearance between headers and steering shaft while you are adjusting your exhaust.
