[QUOTE="FivePointO, post: 14868797, member: 168306"] It is just the driver side clamp. I initially thought the Borla OTA might not be flared correctly, but after looking at it closely it seats perfectly in the axleback, I just cannot get the clamp tight enough to keep the joint from rotating. The clamps are the Torca Swivel Seal clamps (they look identical to the OEM ones) included with the Roush Axleback exhaust. When I first installed the Roush with the stock OTA pipes, the clamp held the joint tight. However, I just can't get it that tight on the driver side with the Borla OTA. I have tried repositioning the clamp multiple times and it seems like every time I undo it and retighten it, it just gets looser. However, the passenger side is nice and tight with no rotation of the joint. When I try to move the passenger side, it is so rigid, it seems like the axleback and OTA pipe are one piece, which keeps the tip aligned perfectly in the bumper unlike the driver side. Thanks for the replies and if the new clamp doesn't resolve the issue, I will give the foil a shot. [/QUOTE]
