So I got my Stainless Works system in, but it looks like I had one part go rogue on me during shipping. Unboxing video incoming.

:(


But the rest looks great....

Wow, how exciting, minus the mishap in transit. Any idea how long that will delay your install and video? Looking forward to it. Good luck sir!

Going to ask someone about fixing it with the right tools. While it sucks it got jacked in shipping, I hate waiting. But I sent an email to Chris at SW, to see what they recommend.

I had an exhuast come damaged once. It was only shipped from 30 minutes away. It sucked.
Iam thinking the same thing now.....such and expensive and heavy item and all it is wrapped in is some paper.

Damn that sucks. I gotta admit, from the looks of the packaging, SW could do a little better than that. The box o' pipes is concerning when we spend $1500 or so on the system. That's the level of packaging i would expect from a cheap replacement system....... Which just happened to me 2 weeks ago. I had to replace the mufflers on my winter car with some cheap Bosal replacements. The hanger was sticking out of the box bent to hell and a female flange was egg shaped from getting bounced around.

I hope SW takes care of you and ships out a new pipe overnight. Still so looking forward to hearing it. Im dying to hear a SW cat back with factory headers.

Appears to be an easy fix. A vice and a pair of vice grips done. The band clamp will clamp on past the damage anyway.

Just cannot justify spending money on an exhaust when the NPP works so well as it is.

I can get a full longtube header system from ARH for $1500 shipped to my door.

From my perspective, the Dual Mode stock exhaust didn't perform to my desires and forced me to check out options.

Those are chambered mufflers inside the x-pipe. They say they reduce drone but I didn't like the neck down to 2.5" so I had them build me one without them.
