so this addresses the clearance issues Tony?
That's one of the things that has swayed me... I know not everyone has had problems, but I've seen it happen enough times that I was a bit concerned...
Does the new version have any drawbacks (in terms of performance, sound or otherwise)?

Look what arrived in the mail:
So a buddy of mines helps to install them and guess what? They STILL don't freakin' fit! ARGH! The fitment is actually worse than the v1's because it hits in 2 spots instead of just one.
I bought these because the fitment issues were supposedly fixed. Then I see people posting on here saying they're still having trouble... Well it was too late then, as I had already sent the money out for the v2's.
Is there any way I can somehow just get a working set? All I want is them to fit properly. Right now it's rubbing and droning inside the cabin which is driving me nuts. I had to put the v1's back on... And here's what these fit like:

ryanm8, Sorry about that. Yours are welded differently to minimize the weld variation but even then there is a degree of car to car variability that outside the tolerance range of the pipe envelope. I'll just have to send you the ones made in a new jig designed with additional clearance.
I'll make a post when they are ready.

That would be awesome. I just want them to fit properly. What should I do with the ones I have now? Should I just try to return them?
