nope  comes out at an angle and in order for it to be snug i have to hang the mid silencer a little lower than it should be.
i think the systems like an inch too long. oh well
When i send it off for engine work, i'll get the exhaust modded.

it has to hang low, as it's designed for a mk2 bumper, but has a mk1 bumper on it, which is lower
mk2 bumper is only as low as the swag line, above the bottom lip on mk1's

shouldn't be like that 
try twisting the centerbox around, so the strenghening plate on tail pipe is underneath, that might make it comeout straight

apparently the satin black systems are actually designed for mk1's which have slightly different placings on them.
There's nothing i can do about the positioning, oh well 
Cheers for the help anyone.

The one I had was on a mk1 and came out at an angle. When I bought it, that was the only one they offered for the Nova.
What's the problem with it coming out at an angle? It doesn't catch anywhere does it?
