New exhaust

I recently installed the tsudo cat-back and noticed a couple of things...

-It hangs low before the rear tires. Is there a way to fix this?


-Also, the tip is more towards the pass. side of the car. Is there a way to fix this?

Sorry if these questions have been asked before, but I couldnt seem to find the exact answers I was looking for.

Thanx in advance guys!!

Loosen all the bolts and move it around. If it dosen't get better then thats probly the best its gonna get. Or you could try bending the hangers see if that helps.

You need hangers by the downpipe, the tsudo has that flex pipe that allows the exhaust to hang down a bit, translates to a few inches by the tim you get to the rear., I have the same problem, I just got a full 2.5" system done and the only hanger is down by the muffler...the 28" resonator is beefy and heavy and sagging... I am scared to drive over a speed bump as it will scrape/dent on it for sure
