Downpipe

[MileHighCaptain]

Hey,

So has anyone had any issues with extra vibration after installing down pipes? It's intermittent and I feel it in the steering wheel mostly and you can kind of hear it too.

Just want to know if this is normal or if there's another issue.

Changing down pipes alone won’t create a vibration. Improper installation definitely can, however.

Yes, i did! I hated it.

What downpipes did you go with? I got VRSF ones and felt it immediately.

I ended up getting AA downpipes with flex jointd and the bracket. It has since gone 99.6% away.

I'll post my thread where i uncovered this shortly.

downpipes install a bit tight, so it's possible it's hitting touching something and vibrating from there - is it vibrating with revs.

It sounds like a bad install, bad fitment or you need new hardware.

Yeah I got a bad part. I went with ssr and since they were out of stock, they had a secondary fabricator make them and quality was shit. They refunded me 100% and are going to send me a new set.
