Just installed the BMR DSL010 as a replacement to their rear brace/loop combo thats meant for OEM driveshafts.
It looks like the DSL010 isnt compatible with the Lethal Performance off road H pipe, and my guess is the off road X as well. Probably not compatible with a host of other exhaust combos.
The problem for the Lethal off road H is that the h exhaust merge portion hits the mounting brace. I had to expensively grind and modify that.
The loop itself was a whole nother box of marbles. Literally woud not clear the H crossover pipe. Seeing as it was late as hell, i was really tired and cranky I said to hell with the loop and notched the crap out of the arm. It now bolts up and clears the pipe. My guess is that its now a one time use loop, and I completely understand its warranty is bye bye.
Why not return it? Needed a loop for racing that didnt rub my driveshaft or have a potential to destroy it if my car ever got air for whatever reason. A trip to a decent fab guy that can position a new loop arm such that it immediately arches up then out to its position. As it currently is made, the arm comes straight out then arches up to position, thus creating incredible interferance issues with the non stock exhaust.
At least put a disclaimer in the sales literature that its intended for OEM exhaust pipes or that it could need extensive modolification to fit.....
