I can't say that your problems are my problems as well. I went w/an FMF pipe and my build is from a 125.
I read that people have had good success w/an FMF (gnarly) pipe. So that's what I got. Then I found out that most people prefer using a Pro Circut.
Anyway, my pipe fit pretty good, but not perfect (to me it was terrible). I chopped up a new pipe to make extra clearance in all the right places. I band sawed through the main welds and shaved off what I needed w/a belt sander. Now the stinger runs parallel w/the frame and it plugs straight into the silencer.
I just need to TIG it back together..
