Yes the angle/radius of the bend is larger than my previous Scorpion DP, and the alignment of the pipes is also different too, but it sounds heaps better (due to the resonator) than the Scorpion DP i had.

The 42DD dump pipe on my car does rest on the shifter cables (manual gearbox) but hasn't caused any issues and it still shifts fine etc. At first i was a bit worried about the shifter cables, but it hasn't been a problem so far.

My TBE rests on the shifter cables as well, but with a proper heat wrap on the cables, they don't burn and shifting is exactly as it felt with the stock DP. I went without ceramic coating. I like the purple colour of the stainless when it heats up
