Greddy makes a great product, I would get a second opinion on the install, if there is a problem try some exhaust wrap.

just watch em work on it!!!!!!!!!

you dont want them to put a kink in the pipe to make it clear!!!! tell them to jack up the car and let you look at it where its hiting and check out all thier hangers!

if you have to find the manager! or ask when he will be in and go back then!
if ya have to have them drop all the hangers alittle. it should be able to fix without bending any pipes!

Im takinga really really good guess and from previous observation and experience (some members wil remember I had all sorts of exhaust trouble awhile back) that your exhust is upside down. Sounds silly, I know.

I'm surprised Midas installed it for you, most chain stores won't touch aftermartet parts, or any parts that you didn't buy from them, for that matter. I don't understand what you're talking about, got a picture?
