Combination of muffler clamps, hooks, turnbuckle bolts and hangar height keep mine in perfect alignment. There's nothing worse to my eye than seeing crooked muffler tips
Wow. JDM, thanks for the link. I would not have found the info without encouragement to read the whole thread. For others interested, the "substance" pic is in post #36.
FYI, the pipes leave the cats on my car just a little out of level, so I have a fight on my hands. I've tried all sorts of adjustments. To get the tips coming out parallel to each other and just peaking out from under the bumper is a puzzle. One thing that worked for a while was jacking one side ahead of the trans and then tightening the torca clamp there. It slips over time though. A permanent restraint like what you have installed oughta do the trick. Or maybe putting just one side through the top side of the bracket. will help. Fingers crossed.
On my Z with cam and SC, I have Kooks 1 7/8 headers to their 3" mid and X pipe with cats, attaching the the stock Ti mufflers.
Not to loud at idle, and quiet inside at cruise and no drone, the SC makes more noise, until you get into it, then it comes alive with a more exotic growl. at least from inside the car.
Just finished removing the Borla Stingers and replaced it with the Z Titanium exhaust. I have LG Long tubes, X pipe and cats. I really like it. Quiet at idle and cruise, but has that rasp and growl when you get into the throttle, with none of the drone. Similar to the Stingers above 2.5k RPM, just 10-15 db less. I really dig it. The Stingers droned and gave me headaches and fatigue.
I do miss the Borla 4" quad tips tho, the stock ones look so tiny and set back lol.
Corsa Indy Pace Car. Very quiet when cruising but has a nice tone when you start to get into it. On my other cars and motorcycles, I love quiet, but the Corsa IPC system sounds just perfect IMHO.
This came on the car when I bought it and so far I haven't wanted to go back to stock.
