+1 on the wing.... i love mine =)

i like those rims dude...
Thanks man. I've been looking for one long enough lol. And thanks =) I didn't know what they were at first but bought them anyway cause it was only $600 with nice all season tires on them. Found out they weren't ever even sold in America =) gotta love being unique lol.

Got the Yonaka cat back on yesterday, love it. Sounds great, quiet when I'm cruising and loud when I hit vtec. My only negative comment about it is that it is too tight underneath my car. So it's touching the underbody of my car and when I start my car it bangs up against my car cause of the vibration. Other than that its a great exhaust.

Remove the heat shields.

Remove the heat shields.
Couldn't get the heat shield off above the cat converter but it didn't rub there. Had to remove the other heat shield along the parking break line cables though. Two of the bolts were rusted and frozen so we had to rip the heat shield off lol

I had to pull all the heat shields off of mine for it not to rub, but thats just me i guess the one with the cat came off to fit the test pipe.

My yonaka doesnt rub at all, it fit really well. Was the heat shield bent maybe?
Are you running a oem manifold? He has a aftermarket header on his which could also be the cause of fitment issues.

Ah there's the problem...maybe I can take it to an exhaust shop and ask them to extend the exhaust at the resonator

or just delete it and they can just put in a inch longer replacement pipe.
Will that make it louder you think? I may go to an exhaust place tomorrow and have them do that as well as welding a flange to my header so I can bolt it to the underbody, cause the DC Sports header had a flange and so did my OEM one, but the Megan Racing one doesn't :( Should be a simple weld though, just gotta find the right spot. Any reputable exhaust shops or places I should stay away from?

As far as place's to go i have no clue. But the res. delete making it louder? Maybe just a smidge but not much. When i got rid of mine i didnt notice a difference at all.

Yeah...I'm trying to find an exhaust shop but not having much luck. I think I'm gonna leave the resonator in for now until I lower my car. If it scrapes then, then I'll have it removed.
