CNT RS help!

This probably needs to be in the install section and if so please move!

Hey guys ok so I got the CNT RS installed yesterday morning and it sounds sick but I'm having the same problem that most ppl have when mounting it lol...all I see is that it needs to be flipped...can someone actually tell me the position it needs to be in? I have the angles side on the mufler side but the passenger tip sticks out a bit and is rubbing a little bit on the bumper...I just want to be 100% sure which of the four positions the pipe needs to be in before getting back under the car.

I'm at work right now cant really take pics unless I make hike out to the car but this can really only be answered by someone who has installed the exhaust themselves as they would know exactly what I am talking about...I can try to get pictures later but idk how it sits but that wouldnt really help..unless there is something specific you want me to show you?

yeah that video really doesnt say much other than there is a bend on one end and that the flad side needs to be toward the cat....did all that...just like I said in the OP....I got it last night though I had to shift the pipes at the connection points a little bit...I had it mounted perfectly right the first time...and had to flip one of the rubber mounts to let the exhaust sag more...Ill get a picture up later of what I am saying...hopefully it will help someone in the future as most info on the interwebs for the install is useless

Thumbs up

ok so I took some crappy pictures of it installed....

This is how close I got it with only messing with it for 15 minutes


This is what I meant by shift the pipe to the side before tightening



This is the normal way to use the rubber mounts on the muffler...this is the right side that does not rub.


This is the left side where I rotated the mount and had to stretch it a bit...but it has no more rubbing and has the same spacing as the other side


Hopefully this helps others!!
