Unhappy magnaflow15714 installed today

Ok first off I broke my tail getting the old unit off!
Once again I broke my getting the old system off, major pain in
the neck! and I tried the strap method no way in the world would
that have worked for me. Next I began hanging the new exhaust
and the inlets and outlets were not even close! not even close!
finally I called the tech line and they had said that you had to
invert the cats to install the system! I went farking ballistic!
I told them to send me a new exhaust because this thing
was no way close, finally another tech called me and said you
have to invert the bracket just in front of the muffler, and that worked
with farking major prying and jacking and cursing! I was a pain in the ***
to install! They SHOULD NOT CALL THIS a direct bolt on because
you will expeiriece the same grief with system that I did.
I sounds great and looks great and the tips fit very nicely
but I would have not bought this system if I knew how much
rigging you would have to do!!!
Next time I would go with the JDM.

Whats the problem? Losen the manifold bolts and you have plenty of movement for the pipes to slip in...

No pics but the tips do fit perfectly, right where they should be
the only problem was the installation, there were no directions
with the system to direct me to loosen the cat bracket, you would never
have guessed that without them, I called magnaflow and the said the NEVER
send defective parts, that they only forget to send directions! I almost crushed
the phone in my hand! anyway it was solved and they do have a tech line
in which was helpful in the end, the system was 440.00 delivered to my door
If you dont receive the instructions call them first and have them send you a copy!
by fax.,
