I notice something strange with the tips. when the car is cold looking at the tips from above its tucked under the bumper. after worming up the car and taking the car for a cruse (trying to get the oil temp to 180) did a couple of hard third and fourth gear runs. Stopped and checked the tips and it was out by an ~inch. and the tips goes back to its original place when it cools down.

I first noticed this after i came home from a trip on the highway. I thought that i needed to re tight the exhaust. woke up in the morning and the tips were back in their place. I thought that i was hallucinating from the long trip.

I just want to share my experience with my current and future fellow F.I.
I'm in love with this exhaust. I can't stay off the throttle. and if i would do it all over again I'll buy the same setup.

It is always great to see that we have another satisfied customer out there.

When the exhaust gets hot, it does expand and the tips will stick out about 1/4"-3/8" further than when the car and exhaust are cold. This is part of the reason why we always tend to slightly tuck our tips on our production systems. Your car is going to spend the majority of its time at operating temperature which is hot!

If you need anything else or have have any questions please do not hesitate to ask...

Thank you, Tony
