I jus installed my thermal and RRE downpipe.Some time after the installation,i noticed that there is a slight vibration on the steering wheel whenever i turn it. Im not too sure whether it was caused by the exhaust.any ideas?

I don't think that would be caused by the exhaust, but funnier things have happened. It's probably more like your wheels are out of balance, or your rotors could be warped, you'd feel it in the brake pedal as well if is rotors. It doesn't hurt to get your tires balanced and rotated, why not start there? :)

It COULD mean they are warped. Make sure your pofile is up to date. If you have stock rotors you can possably get them turned, $8 per rotor at Pep Boys if you pull them and carry them in. I'd also recommend getting your tires balanced. When you put your wheels back on make sure you tourqe them right to aviod having the rotors warp again if that is the case. Good Luck. :thumb:
