new 2bular on and rwady to go. Old exhaust was a pain to come until I had a wee tantrum. Only thing I'm struggling with is the rear diffuser. The lip or tongue at the rear of the exhaust is touching.
I've read some people bend this down or back but it looks like it would be best to trim the diffuser to fit? Any experience?

The top of the two tubes on mine is pretty close to the diffuser - Jim made a few adjustments - you shoul dbe able to do the same.
Sound nice ?

Its meant to go on without altering the diffuser however I believe every car is different. My diffuser has been well and truly butchered.
Most of that is due to the stage 2 but it still needed Grinderman to fix it for the Ultra.

Had the rear diffuser off and on a million times. Silencer tips up puts RH exit pipe down so fouls diffuser, tips down and the hole aint big enough to get the pipes through. Tried everything in between. Woke up with brain wave, Screwfix, aircraft metal snips, job done!
Sounds fantastic, bit smoky until the heat got through the silencer. Pop and bang on the overrun is smile factor 10.
The rear diffuser was rattling when I got back but everything is tight. When the car cooled down it disappeared. I'll see how this pans out probably just the system expanding, might have to get the snips out again.

7 x 22. Not as hardcore as your Ultra. But I'm shy, retiring, nearing 40 and have 2 kids
