Well, you need to give us some more clues. Is the gasket installed?

Not sure then without some pics. There are many people that have the ZPI S pipe installed with only a few that had any issues. I would do a search "zpi and pipe" to see any info.

Did you try calling Kenny at ZPI? They are open on Saturday now.

i had all types of problems with the s-pipe as well. do u have an aftermarket header or exhaust? i ended up having to cut some of the piping in my CC catback and having it welded back together at a slight angle to get the thing to fit properly. i don't even really feel a difference-but, i also don't have a header installed.

everyone has had these problmes and everyone has fixed it themselves in one way or another

i had teh same problmes

the rear flange, i just used smaller bolts and nuts

the front flange, i tighened in 1 side, then i stuck a smaller bolt nut washer through and tighened it.

i checked it after 1000 miles. everything is fine

if you dont trust yoru own install. just tak it to a muffler shop.
im sure they will do it for 60 or 70
