lol. No. W/o readjusting something I think it would wiggle itself back over. Putting isos back in tomorrow a.m. to lift the car 1/2" for clearance, will see if I can't figure something out while I have her jacked up.

Good luck. You could also go to an exhaust shop and have them torch the exhaust to heat it up a bit and just bend it over a tiny bit.

Yeah I don't know. It would need to be moved no less than 1.5" so heating it wouldn't cut it. Some fab work is really needed, but I got the isos in now for the lil bit more clearance so they're not scraping except very slightly over speedbumps. I can see them from the side but it doesn't look awful enough to spend more $ on. I really like the sound of these things though. Can't wait to get the full exhaust in. Thx for the tips.

The LM2's aren't much louder than the Powerflo's (more pronounced sound at idle, drone at cruising speed under light load is tolerable). You might want to consider switching to those, although for the $190 that LM2's cost you could have a shop do a little light fab to make the ones you already have fit right. I just got sick of my Powerflo's because they gave me less ground clearance than LM's. The final straw was when the forward facing side of one caught on something and pulled my exhaust apart from the muffler back. Had to drive like 70 miles home sounding like Dale, Jr.
