You installed it wrong. You need to use the hanger from the driver side of the stock muffler. DId you do that?

Yep, it still sat about 3/4 of an inch too far to the left...

 

Finally installed mine. Great sound! Not loud at all and I just love it everytime I start my car now. The only problem I ran into when installing was the rubber hangers, I didn't know you needed to remove the chrome sleeves in order to make them fit over the RRM exhaust. Also, mine is not exactly centered, sits a bit to the left.

 

I had that problem too but took it to a friends shop that had a lift, he put it on the lift and unbolted it then while he pushed on the tip to get it centerd I bolted it back down, that sloved the problem.

 

The axelbacks are geting better everyday. We are now using soem thicker rust proof tubing. Maybe we should call it v2?

Any love for the people who got the "rust prone" ones???

 

+1^ mine the paint satrted to come off so I repainted it with 2,000 degree heat paint.

 

That's a good question, RRM what do you cover under warranty? Paint coming off, rust, etc?

 

It is not really a warranty issue just an improvement to the product. Kinda like a MICORSOFT VISTA patch is. We are trying guys but we cannot do anything except continue to learn and improve everything we make.

I put this up not to rile people up but demsonstrate that we did this and the price of the piping is now $48 more than before. Thus the price did jump up a bit.

In other words, RRM products aren't warranted against cosmetic defects only actual performance defects?

 

Yay! I just ordered mine today and I should be getting it and installing it on wendesday along with my side skirts!!!
I can't wait...
next on my list is a new intake! but it might be a while....

 

You will be quite happy with both items.

How does the RRM model compare to the HKS Hi-Power axle back exhaust. Both are supposed to be fairly quiet... I really dont like the loud ricey sounding ones that are out there. So I have to decide between these two. Is one easier to install then the other or have a better tone? What about performance gains or is it just negligible?

 

Well here is my 2 cents, I'm a certified Tech so take it for what its worth.

The RRM axle back that I got for my 09 GTS fit well after the adjustments.
My observations.....
--The back hangar does nothing to hold the weight, all weight is put on front hangar.
--Mine had an awefull drone at approx 3000 rpm, if was that bad that I tried not to drive in that range.

PERHAPS an extra res would help IMHO and they should really get better at answering emails (sent three to Brian no reply).
