Aaron,
After speaking to JBA on the phone they say I have an alignment problem. I
will be checking this tonight and trying what they suggest. I haven't heard
of other people having difficulity, so I'll assume it is just me or my
method.

I was thinking of ordering the jba y-pipe. Is this a problem with all of
them or just a defect on yours? maybe I should go with another company? I
have jba headers so that's why I thought of them first.
