Well I called MBRP and they said for me to send pictures of the pipe and my original purchase reciept and they will get a replacement pipe out asap. Problem is thier asap, will be a couple of weeks because they dont have any in stock and have to wait until they make more. So I hit my local muffler shop and they stretched the pipe for free and I will be going back to have them weld everything up nice and tight.

Also, Like REJECT, my tailpipe is not notched either. Which is why I am getting it welded.

Mines all Stainless, so I went away from welding, But mostly because I paid to replace the Cat back not fix the old one and couldnt afford it either haha.

I used a Grinder to cut the notches in mine.

They are a smaller company and they will respond to you pretty quick with at least something like an email, t-shirt, hat, apologies and or satisfaction to you. I haven't had them ever give me any grief and I have made 3 purchases for my vehicles and my snowmobile.

Just remember man, the receptionist isnt the fault here.

Reject, where was it supposed to be notched at the tail?
the SI/SO I had is a 2 piece tail pipe, One from the Muffler to just over the Axle, Then the other from there to the side.
You can see the clamp here

Well got everything installed. Local shop stretched and welded the Y-pipe connection and the tailpipe connection. Sounds GREAT, just a little to much drone in the cab, so its time to dynamat.
I also let MBRP that I couldnt wait and was having a shop fix thier problem and they offered to reimburse me the fee. Now thats great customer service.
