Well, i needed an H pipe fast, and I oredered a Summit Brand O/R H pipe and the fitment was horrible, compared to the MAC's i've installed before, this one was a PITA..... Goodthing was that it did bolt up after some work....

i love summit because of the fast free shipping, and i an order over the phone at 10:ooPM

but that H pipe was the worst.
next time i will deffinately go with a 3 piece mac or anything higher quality...

side note:

warlock mufflers/ stock h pipe are out, and Flows and O/R H are in

yeah, you do get what you pay for, however the MAC's are the same price at 109.95....

the fitment issue was at the H Bar, (connector that makes the "H") that was too short and not a good slip in like the last 2 mac's i installed, not at the header collector

oh... and the O2 sensor on the Pass. Side was welded too low, couldn't fit the socket on, had to tighten with a wrench...
