Damn your right. Too short. Motordyne told me the 370 has short mid pipes but also the rear most pipes are different too. So you may need to send it all back. That sucks bro. Goodluck. Those mids def look short now

Thanks! Man that sucks that the rear pipes are different as well. It's going to be a pain if I have to ship that huge box back.
I only measured the mid pipe. It is 22" long. If you can measure them that would be great and the rear pipes too please.

Im curious why MD told me the rear pipes were different too as i was gonna put my e370 for the G on my 370 but they said id need mid pipes and rear most pipes maybe length was same but bends or angles different. Definitely inquire about it. Goodluck man. You definitely picked the right exhaust

After looking at some pics the rears do look like they almost touch each other at some point. That is the only difference I could tell.
I am very disappointed with Motordyne since it is almost 3 days and I still haven't got a response back from them. The called at least 12 times and the only person that ever picked up was Tony but he couldn't do anything to help me out. I would expect a lot better customer service coming from a well know brand.

At this point I am very impatient and mad since I wouldn't expect this.
I went through Race Consulting Agency and they too have not had any luck. I think I should blow up they're Facebook page so that they can get the ball rolling.

Thanks for the help, but I already talked to Tony. He said I would have to contact the sales department. I finally got a hold of a lady at MD and so did my vendor. We are still waiting to hear back from them as to what they will do. She said she was going to talk to the workers in shipping to see what might have happened. My vendor sent her pictures of the mid pipes showing the length of them so I hope that helps them see that they are not the correct ones for my car.
My vendor thinks that they might just send me the correct mid pipes instead of shipping out the whole exhaust. Who knows how long that will take now.

Hey I installed this on my G37S coupe a couple weeks ago. Ever since I have had condensation leaks at the v clamps and the cat flanges. I used copper rtv gasket maker at the flanges and that thankfully stopped those leaks. And I have it finally narrowed down to one leak at the passenger side rear v clamp. I have readjusted this a few times already and it has leaked really bad every time. But this most recent time I made sure the pipes are definitely mated correctly, the v clamp could spin easily when loosened before I tightened it up, and visually it looked like the pipes were flat together on all sides. I torqued to 70 in lbs while holding it in that position. Does anyone have any advice on getting rid of this leak? I feel like at this point it doesn’t matter how I adjust it it is still gonna leak lol because I really feel it can’t be sealed together any better. I haven’t read anyone having this problem in any of the threads so I just don’t get it lol

mine always leaked. Leave it for a few months the carbon really helps to seal it. So one last time adjust use rtv and tighten. Then wait a few months for carbon to build and recheck. Its really hard to align perfect and not leak somewhere.
