how was the installation? was it direct bolt on or you had to modify so it can sit straight?

Ehh I bent the hanger a bit on one side to make it sit a bit more even, but it was fine. Fit is obviously not going to be perfect for the product it is, but I am still pleased overall with it.

well one thing for sure, its definitely not a "perfect" bolt on.. trust me, you can do it yourself to put all together in one piece in your car, but you need to go to exhaust shop to get it perfect..

HKS replica is a direct bolt on but some modification to the hangers is needed to get the tips aligned correctly. I have one with a magnaflow xpipe and it sounds amazing and not a spot of rusting. Only thing i would recommend is getting new tips because the blue is starting to fade and become orange.
