Holy smokes, that's some real butchered exhaust work there.
Not related to the obviously hammered on mid-pipe but 4th picture down you see your o2 sensors? On the driver side there 2, of them. The grey wiring sheath is for the primary O2 for B1S1 and below it at an obvious downward angle I can tell is the wideband. I'm not sure who installed the Bung for the wideband as it is an obvious oversight as when you put an o2 sensor on a downwards angle like that the condensation building in the exhaust will collect on the sensor and rott it out from the inside out. Always install o2 bungs at an upwards angle preferably 15* or so or else you'll experience premature sensor failure. Glad you were able to bring it to another shop that knows what they're doing to correct the mistakes. You should post up the name of the shop so everyone knows to avoid them IMHO.

QUOTE] Unfortunately it looks like it is still at the wrong angle because its in the header collector. You can see this in the 10th picture (2nd of the finished ones)

But first, the business owner comes on and belittles people, calls them names, accuses people of making up stories and pictures, etc. or says he was not given an opportunity to defend himself and the work done...I wonder how he would defend this work??

What I want to no is, how are people supposed to make educated choices of shops to use when the bad reviews get deleted on a forum that is used to help its members? Good or bad they should be visible to help, especially when you can see how the owners explode
