Exhausts not "even"? Look!
Hey guys,
(oops meant to say Exhausts in the title)
I noticed that my right exhaust is a little lower than my left exhaust. I am going to go back this week to have the people who did my exhausts fix it. Have any of you guys experienced this problem? It's no big deal, but the way I see it, I spent alot of money to do these exhausts so I might as well get it right!

You may be able to save yourself a trip. If its set up like the SC, the tips are held in place by a spring steel collar and are not difficult to move. Just try pushing the tips up or down to even them out. This will take a little muscle but done worry, you won't break it. You might wnat to wear leather gloves since sometimes the edged of the tips are sharp.
If you can't push enough to do it, the hangers need adjustment (likely done with a hammer). This is sloppy work but not everyone thinks it matters or even notices. I'm with you, these little thing are important and should be done right. Good luck.

On my Tanabe Super Hypers, I just ended up using a suggestion from a fellow CL member. Just use hose clamps on the hanger of the one that sags. Tighten the hose clamp to raise the muffler. That's what I did to even out mine....remember to keep the rubber clamps on there in case the metal hose clamps break
