What can I tell the shop to get this adjusted? (Stillen CBE)
 
Hi guys,

I managed to get my Stillen CBE and Berk HFC's installed. I am taking the car to a shop because I think it needs some adjustment and I'm not really sure how to accomplish this.

This is only on the right side. The left side is centered but also has some gap between the tip and the bumper.

But, a picture's worth a thousand words. Any input appreciated.. Thanks in advance..

How does the other exhaust tip look? Do you have one directly behind showing both?

Try sending Josh at Stillen a PM. They will know more about how to fix it .

I do have a couple of pics like that but I don't have them here at work. I will upload them in a couple of hours when I get home.

If your OEM exhaust tips were off centered, then these will likely be off centered also. It seems way off though, so I would try having them loosen the entire CBE bolts, align & retighten.

Also, when looking down, do the exhaust tips stick out the same amount? Is either one on an angle?

My OEM tips were right on the spot, they were perfectly centered.

The right tip sticks out a little bit more than the left one. If you're looking from the top up, the left tip is out so you can exactly read the word STILLEN. The right tip is out so you can read STILLEN + a pinky finger distance.

Maybe the tubes need to be slipped in better in the joints with the Y-pipe..??
