Your car sounds very good and the new exhaust looks good on the car. Congrats on a nice mod.

Hey OldC5, I think I'm having the exact same problem with mine. I put on a new set of GHL bullets last weekend, and they look and sound great.

But for whatever reason I can't get the left side to stay aligned correctly. I've tighted the hell of out of the clamps, but when I apply downward pressure to the pipes it sags almost instantly. It looks like the whole exhaust moves when I put pressure on it.

Is this the same problem you're having? Any ideas on how to fix it?

-Ed

Gonna throw this up real quick. If you guys havnt heard this before, go and get the Mothers Mini Powerball to pollish the insides. I can polish all 4 tips in less than 10 minutes! And that is after adding a few hundred miles worth of exhaust build up. (sorry, she's a dd, and even gets rained on) Just throwing it out there.. Car looks great btw!
