I have the JDM version- I took the metal shield off around the canister and adjusted the exhaust hanger very little... If very much at all... and it's been on the car for 2 yrs and does not touch the evap canister in any way - nor has the exhaust ever moved after I installed mine either .... I've checked it often too. - For ppl who want to see mine - I can text pics - there's not even a hint of a touch of any marks on my canister whatsoever, no heat wrap used at all.
And never thrown any lights either... But I've heard of issues, but no problems here.
Feel Free for any questions I can help with to PM or ask away....
If it helps someone to decide - I'm glad to help. - and yes it's the JDM version because the USDM version has a bend in pipe for more clearance for the evap canister. - My amuse swings around in the full " ) " shape just like this one does on the muffler. - (JDM)
Thanks and glws-
