Hey guys, I am attempting to install the z1 performance m-spec single exhaust, and I am having a clearance problem at the cross member that the diff mounts to (see attached pic).

I've loosened my entire exhaust but I can't seem to find a combination that actually gets it to clear this. Anyone got any good advice here? Thanks!

 

Have you tried reversing the ends of that section of pipe

 

It can definitely only go one way, has a flange on one side, and the muffler connects with a slip joint or whatever you call it (pipe goes into muffler, then uses a t-bolt clamp around the pipe)

 

Call z1

 

What y-pipe are you running?

 

btw absurd, your diff bushing is blown out

 

Haha yeah, I did email them yesterday -- was hoping for a quick solution if someone ran into the same problem specific to this exhaust.

Motordyne XYZ with resonator

Yup, it's on the list! Thanks for looking out!

 

i finally looked at the exhaust, and yeah its pretty obvious it only goes one way... unless i am just retarded

 

So I have their dual setup and even that had some issues. Nothing I would not fix but I did have to bend their hanger a bit for it to work.

Also the clamps for the muffler sections are garbage : /

 

I run several Z1 products so not hating, but that fits worse than the ISR single...which fits great except for resting on the crossmember.

Did Z1 respond?

 

Yeah, they said to just bend the hanger that goes around the muffler, which has seemed to work.

 

Yeah, I like Z1, but this exhaust feels overpriced at the $500ish I paid for it. I wish I had just cut the cone-tip off my old Motordyne Shockwave and had a custom muffler added, etc.
