    Installed Daniel's free test pipe. It's shiny. I like shiny things. :)

    Of course, now the rear grill won't go on because the exhaust tips have changes position.

    Why would the exhaust tips be in a new location?
    Did you install it on the designated platform? I would think that if I installed a test pipe for a particular model that it would have the same interface dimensions as the part being replaced...

    Yeah, I still can't figure it out. The pipe slotted right in where the cat was. I'm stumped.

    That's the Hyperflow? Yeah, I'm having a bit of an issue too, not sure how to lift that corner. The spring-loaded mount doesn't seem to adjust.

    put it in loosely, maybe even loosen up the other test pipe, then get it into position, then cinch it down.

    Loosen all the connections to header and exhaust, use something to center and keep the tips centered and tighten. I had to use some large washers to get mine exact, X-ost and hyperflow but with just the pipe I'd think unneccessary. Only one test pipe, but you already know that. Good luck.

    I used a 2x4 centered on a floor jack and leveled the tips to get it just right.

    Good method, I shimmed the exit space in the grill but it took a bit to center timewise, your way sounds much quicker. It's amazing how all the connections can change the exit of the tips.
