Thermal R&D 2.5" installed

[nikolai9956]

Hey,
I installed Thermal R&D 2.5" exhaust last week. Love the sound. Morning warm up rumble is perfect for waking my son up at 6am for high school (car is usually backed up facing his bedroom window). Cold warm up (25f here at night) usually lasts about 5-10 minutes. Then it really quiets down until you get on it.
I only have 1 issue with the install. Tips are sitting in way too recessed for my liking. Everyhting is aligned perfectly and all connections are close together. Should I loosen the section between mid pipes and muffler and push the whole system back (1/2")? I have no issues with it except for parking aid sensons in the morning throwing off errors from exhaust fumes.
Thank you

I just finished installing the exact same thing on my 25 today. Just Move the tips out. I spent quite a bit of time getting them both the same. I used a small level as well. Turned out nice.

Never heard that one before, rear sensors going off because of exhaust fumes. Should be able to just move the whole system back like you mentioned.

Its been cold here in NJ.. The sensor might be fogging up from exhaust.
