Personally, I couldn't handle the drone. Nor would I be satisfied with the passenger side muffler hanging so low.

i agree, but it’s welded now I have plans to do a resonance chamber thing to combat the drone but I probably won’t do that for a while. And the passenger side muffler, yeah that too but that can be fixed. I just need to fix it. Probably gonna modify the hanger to be higher because I don’t wanna shell out $150 for a GSF hanger that might or might not work.

That is weird...

Mind fit right on to mid-pipe without any issue.

But that again, I had GSF muffler brackets.

Really? For me, the flanges were different... the GSF flanges were too wide

OP, are you sure those came out of a GS-F? Could be IS-F or RC-F?

Awesome, thank you! I was trying to find a diagram like this but couldn’t find it. The brackets were complete bolt on as well? I might consider buying just the passenger side one and hope it brings the muffler up. If it doesn’t then I’ll have to modify it.

I just facepalmed myself so hard.... it’s possible these might be from a different car. I got these off eBay but I also talked to the guy when I went to go pick it up. He said they were from his brothers GSF.

Doesn't the pipe look like little bent???

If those are bent, it could make it little shorter.

Well, I guess it's little too late now.

From the pictures I could find, it looks like that’s how it comes from factory
