I'm very satisfied with my Tsudo dual. Easy to install. System is quiet. I am reluctent to remove the muffler trumpet baffels because I think motor needs suffient back pressure for performance

Im def takeing out the trumpet baffels, Need some Deep sound so when i give it some gas the Intake and exhaust work and sound killer. My Next step is getting the Wepon-R header and installing my Agency Power Crank pully. All that should make up for the Little Loss in power.

Lovin the exhuast - but only a few hours after installation (and driving around town and eventually home) I checked up on the exhaust (took a look underneath the rear bumper)to make shure all was well and noticed that the rear bushing on the passenger side was missing and the front bushing was loose. I took a look over to the driver side bushings and they were loose also. Having only one bushing caused the passenger side muffler to slighty sag along with the rest of the piping all the way back to the cat Installation was done by ASE certified professional mechanics and everything was fine before leaving the shop (I even watched them as they installed it) The only thing that could have been done to prevent this would be using a nut at the end of the rod through the bushings (which were not included or recommended by Tsudo or Speed-Element.com) Using two nuts to hold the bushings tight should be a quick fix but now to get another bushing
Anyone else have a similar issue with the hangers or bushings?? or any idea where I can get a replacment bushing??

Speed-Element any chance of resolving the issue witha replacement bushing??
Sorry for the novel....
Here are a few pics to better understand....







Rear View, Rod still supported but bushing missing.....

a nut should have been included to hold the bushing onto the threaded rod. Was there not one to begin with?
Are you missing bushings from both sides or just the passenger? Please PM me your order/confirmation number. Thanks.

The exhaust looks good and I'm glad to hear you like it ! Looking forward to learning how the bushing problem resolves. Still delayed on getting back to my car and doing the install -- the exhaust kit arrived early June, but I had to leave the week before !

Your gonna love it!!!! Sounds Awsome!!!!(Nice and DEEP) Look's Awsome. Well worth the money. Speed-Element Def has a Great Exhaust and at a great price you can't go wrong. I dont think the bushing and the nuts are going to be a problem thanks to a Stand up company like Speed-Element who stands behinde there sales, But Still Just gotta wait it out and see what happen's.
