Exhaust adjustments??

[JohnBoyNC]

My FR by Borla exhaust was installed at the dealer when I first purchased the car (I know, first mistake) and every since the tips have been bugging me because they aren't identical in either the height, compared to the valance opening, or as far as they stick out.

Can either of these issues get corrected by adjusting the hanger or something?

Thanks in advance.

You could absolutely take it to a local muffler shop and have them add, move, or alter the hangers around to get them to sit right. Depending on your location and how busy the shop is I'm guessing <$50.
Axleback or catback? If you are a DIYer you may be able to loosen the clamps between the muffler and resonator and adjust how the exhaust sits a bit.

You might be able to adjust them. Loosen up the mufflers and move it around to see if it does anything.

I'm not familiar with how the FR Borla exhaust works but with my Corsa Sport, there is some adjustability with the tips on the mufflers, and the mufflers themselves a bit. See if you can loosen some bolts and get it adjusted.

Otherwise, I would just take it back to the dealer whom I assume you PAID to install it, and have them fix it to your liking.

Took it to a local performance shop, Toxic Detail and Performance, and he loosened everything up and was able to get the tips out about 1/4 - 1/2" and got the tips centered up in the openings.

I'm a happy camper now!

Thanks Will!!
