Default Tanabe Exhaust

My Tanabe exhaust is not even. The left side seems a little higher than the right. Does anyone else have this issue with their Tanabe? Thanks

This was common on the 2gen ISx50. Does it also sit farther in (sucked in) on the passenger side? My GS did this with the OEM exhaust and we had to modify somethings when we made my exhaust so they sat out the same. The passenger side is longer then the driver side to compensate for this.

If its just how they sit you can use zip ties (sounds crazzzzy) but I was told to do this with the IS and it actually worked. We put 2 heavy duty zip ties on each hanger. Never had a problem in winter or anywhere with them.

No, I don't think it sits further in, just sits further up (or the right one sits further down), however you see it.

I've made it a little better by bending the hangers slightly on the left side to lower it a little but I could only do it so much without unmounting my exhaust, which I was in no mood to do the other day.
