Boomtube alignment...very dissappointing

I followed TacoBill's instructions to install the GTA's over the weekend.

Did you try adjusting the over axel tubes to compensate for the horible alignment. But you may have just gotten a bad set from mac. I would defently call whoever you bought them from and see if they have any suggestions. I would not cut/modify them before you know if you can return them. That sucks I have installed tons of boom tubes and never had a alignment problem.

The 07+ has different exhaust hangers... these 'should' fix that problem up...

My Boomtubes had a horrible fit also. I put my Boomtubes on and adjusted at the midpipe. The midpipe adjustment allowed me to get the length of the tips sticking out from the cut-outs even. But no amount of midpipe or over-axle adjusment was going to get the tips centered in the cut-outs.
So....I had to bend the sh*t out of the hangers. It looks perfect now but required multiple installations and removals to get them bent just right.
Dealing with the poor fitment was worth it once I got the hangers bent right. The exhaust note is the best out of all the systems I have tried (5 to date)!

A couple things...
1) Driver's side...a little rod tweak and a tweak of the over axle pipe from the H pipe...fits good.
2) Passenger side...a rod must of got bent during shipping (wasn't obvious yesterday in my haste)...tweaked the rod back...over axle pipe tweak...fits good.
An over reaction ( as my wife suspected)...yep...do they sound good?...Hell yea!
We may now kill this thread!
