RRM axleback exhaust discussion thread
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, it was that bad that I tried not to drive in that range.
Mine is taken off and going to sell local and get something diff..
PERHAPS an extra res would help IMHO and they should really get better at answering emails (sent three to Brian no reply).
Cheers

As for the rust issue on the RRM Exhaust I have not had that, and to me I lovwe the exhaust, its not loud at all. The paint was coming off mine a little bit but I fixed that with a trip to autozone and picked up some 2,000 degree header paint
other than that i love it and way to go ROB!

to align the exhaust in the cutout its best to have a buddy help yout, Have your Buddy hold the tip centerd. then you bolt the bolts in one at a time, make sure you buddy pushes the exhaust to be centerd the same time, just a tip
^^ Yea I plan on having a buddy help me, problem is we dont have a lift or anything, so we have to use a couple jacks. And it will prob be 30 degrees out when we try to install it next week.
u can prolly just use one jack on the back right side.. i did my full exhaust Injen headerback with just 2 ramps.. and i slid underneath no problem.. i did 80% of the work by myself
Nice pics. Changed metals so no rust issue at all anymore. Best selling exhaust for the Lancer for sure. They have been around since the first Preproduction Lancers landed on US soil.

Well, isn't this interesting......this picture shows how it doesn't really stick out from the back of the car at all......YET mine (which is supposed to be the same version for the same car) isn't like that......it stuck out a few more inches than that........WTF! Of course, that and the poor fitment in the first place. Truly not a bolt-on product as it's claiming to be.
Nice! Great quality control, guys!
I think that will have been my very LAST RRM purchase. Glad I switched to the Magnaflow catback.
