I used my OEM gasket and haven't had any issues.

Yes you use the oem gaskets.

Contact us for pricing on the exhaust.

  • Do I need to reset the ECU or is it just plug and play?
  • Is the donut gasket (in between midpipe and axle back joint) supposed to show? The donut gasket that came in the box is thicker than the stock (old) gasket and it creates a slight gap. Even though there is a gap, the gasket appears to be sealing everything. I'm pretty sure I installed the spring loaded bolts and nuts correctly but I just wanted to double check.
  • How long does it take to get the burning plastic smell to go away?
where does the metal rings go that came with the kit?

I just installed mine Q300 too and noticed the hanger doesn't have that bumper near the end and can potentially becomes loose. I had to zip tie the pole haha...

that is dangerous, most of the hanger have a nipple to stop from coming off, u should ask people that have it or ask the seller.

if its the axle back only just use the supply exhaust donuts and use the stock bolt and spring but use the nut they provide and make sure its tight. thats how i installed mines and it sounds great
