    I see you guys. Very busy with work at the moment. Took a bit of time to build a package that was a one click order.

    The bracket in my car is the same one that needed manual modification, so it is possible to make it fit for those that have ordered and own a grinder, Dremel, etc.

    edit: the easy way to modify would be drilling a new hole on the driver’s side, making a sort of infinity symbol. This may have been the approach I took, memory is weak. It can be free handed with a 9mm, 11/32 or 3/8” drill bit.

    Bumping... just seeing if I can order the most up to date bracket

    No worries!

    Can you link to the updated bracket and I'll order that? I'll order the extra small clamp bracket too.

    No worries man - it happens. Any chance you might be able to upload v2? I’ll order the correct bracket to save the hassle during install and see if those guys can include the extra bracket with my order from yesterday that doesn’t ship until 12/11

    Permanently joining supersprint pipes will make them nearly impossible to remove, but if you plan to do something temporary or removable, go for it. Be cautious, thermal expansion is one hell of a force, so if you don’t design your joining parts and weld points properly, you can chase failing welds for a long time.
    I meant i could weld to the clamp in the pic (which is can remove, and the use the third space to bolt the 2 clamps together, like the other 2 in the system. Are you saying there may be a problem doing that?

    Also, I'm trying to test fit now. Did you have to make the hole that attaches to the tranny wider (like longer)? I can't seem to get the holes to line up.

    Thoughts?

    Either screw length and anything in between should work. 20mm length screws will allow for washers at the bracket interface, if you like using washers (I did) as 16mm is just a hair short to pass the ‘looks right’ test. Either length should work into the gearbox

    you’ll have to confirm which length you bought for the screws since there was a range provided.

    Yep, bend to fit! This way it’s compatible with both pipe diameters, and can accommodate the rather crappy SS manufacturing tolerances.

    It should easily bend with a vice or two pairs of big pliers. I used two pairs of knipex parallel pliers (greatest tool ever) to bend mine to fit in situ.

    My has just arrived, thank you so much for the fast turnaround!!

    I understand the tranny bracket and the spacer to the long bracket... but how does that brack connect to the clamp that holds the exhaust pipe?

    It looks like your end looks different than mine
