the hangar for the middle pipe that connects first to the exhaust is like less than a cm from the crossmember and the hangar that holds it is at an angle and is the lowest it goes, anyone know if this is a worry or if its no big deal. so far no rattling but just wanted to be sure

thanks,

I never had rattling issues with my AP (except when the rivets on the tips came loose)

how long did it take for it to get loose?

oh curious do you notice if your ap fitment is a little crooked
i think im blind or something it keeps looking like the left exhaust sticks out more than the right

It took a couple years to notice the rattle from loose rivets.
No fitment issues and the exhaust tips look equal distance coming out the shrouds.

damn i think i fucked up or something, the hangar in your middle pipe to exhaust canisters is it at a angle?

Jon316G

I don't recall the hanger itself being at an angle, though I can't say for sure.
I'll have to look under the car later to see for sure.

R u talking about the hanger next to the differential? Cuz if its that then it will rattel against it, what I did was cut off the little piece right after rubber garment works great no issues.

hm i must've gotten lucky with mine
but my tips seem to be resting on the bottom of the rear bumper guards.. anyone else have this issue?

yes i had to remove mine completely or they would melt.

damn for real.... how did you refit the exhaust? it seems to just settle that way.

mine was resting on the bumper guards, i just attached one of these around the rubber garment and tightened it to lift it off of them.

that's a good idea. I think imma go to ACE hardware to get me some of those

worked like a charm

did you keep your shrouds on?

iTrader: (10)

does anyone know how to ground the agency power exhaust? I have no idea where to put it

Jon316G

iTrader: (1)

There is no where to ground it on the AP exhaust.
I just removed my ground wire.
Been running fine for several years now.

Really? One of the guys at a local meet told me that if you don't ground it, it's dangerous. Are you running a midpipe? Or stock cat?

Jon316G

iTrader: (1)

I've ran the same cat-back with the stock cat, the AP mid-pipe, and the MazSport mid-pipe.
I can't see how the concentration can be THAT bad to where a static discharge can ignite it.
But if you're worried about it, just attach it to the clamp between the "mid-pipe" and the muffler pipe (might need to use a larger ring terminal and probably longer wire).

ok cool man, thanks for the info! If you ran ok, i'm sure i'll be fine. appreciate it!
