Motordyne e370 issue

I recently installed the motordyne e370 catback on my 08 coupe. It has stock exhaust manifold and Megan resignated test pipes. It sounds amazing, but there are a few issues iM having. Due to the clamps coming off the mid muffler I cannot reinstall the crossmember that bolts underneath the driveshaft, the exhaust hangs to low. I was wondering If anyone had similar problems. I think it may also be due to the test pipes not having the brackets for the stock piece that bolted to the cats from the crossmember. I can take some photos tomorrow if you can't understand what I'm saying. Thanks guys!

I think I have a pretty good idea of what you're talking about but pictures would definitely help. Is there anyway you'd be able to buy or customize some brackets to raise it a bit?

I've been on the forum for awhile lol I just posted it it a few different spots. But anyway I still have the stock cat bracket that bolts to the transmission crossmember. I'm going to take it to a shop eventually. All I'd really need thsm too do is weld some tabs on the test pipes that may help. Cuz it vibrates alot more as well

That sounds like a good plan hopefully they don't charge you to much for welding at the shop. Anytime a shop around me hears the word welding I can see the dollar signs begin to glare in their eyes lol. I overlooked your join date and just saw you had 5 posts

Yea I thought about getting rid of the clamps completely and just welding the seams. Idk I'll take it in and see what they can do. I appreciate the help tho man
