Agreed. What appears to be nice parts were hacked together.

Thanks. I've been here since 2009 but never posted much due to not owning a G8 till recently.
Lots of great information on here that helped guide my decisions on mods to do right away!

Thanks! As soon as my Maxflow mufflers arrive this week from Ebay, I will be getting Rick Crawford to tune this thing for me.

Now it's a Party
Welcome. Nice ride and nice build.
I hope you don't mind me saying but the inside tip of your passenger side muffler looks higher than the right tip. I remember when my Borla catback was installed, the shop couldn't align the tips properly so I had to. What you can play with to align the tips are various thickness washers where the end of the muffler bolts up into the body. Doing this, I was able to level the tips, as well as, control the distance of the tip from the pocket of the GXP diffuser which looked better and made cleaning the tips easier.
Enjoy your car.
