I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. I don't know if I got a bad set because I bought during their scratch & dent sell, but I keep getting exhaust leaks on my passenger side downpipe. I've swapped out the CVFAB gasket with a brand new one, and the same thing keeps happening. Mind you I have taken it to two shops now, and it's definitely a bad seal. You can either blame the downpipe, or the gasket, not the installer. In my opinion, buy a different brand, because after scouring the internet, I'm not the Lone Ranger on this. I'm sure some haven't experienced this, but if you're not listening for it, you likely won't notice the leak, but you can see it on the gasket. FYI, make sure your installer is aware of the potential issue, that way you won't have to go back multiple times.
