If you think you have exhaust leak causing backfire (personally, I DON'T, because exhaust shouldn't burn, unless there's unburned fuel in it, but I never got paid for wrenchin'), but anyway, spray the slip-fits with WD, then loosen them, and re-tighten them.
I did that with mine after a few days final torque-down, just to make sure that they were seated. Maybe do it while they're still warm.

Then finish centering the slack in the slip-fit pipes (and getting a little oil in the clamps, and female + male sections of pipe REALLY makes this part easier). With binding pipe sections, it's gonna' tough to slide the sections forward and backward, to get travel.
(process repeated from header-to-first section juncture, and proceeded back)
Last section slid forward and marked:
then all the way rearward:
and locked in halfway (with the clamps turned up sideways, to not catch speedbumps, etc. Believe it or not, was already there - all pipes and clamps were lubed for adjustment, and hung down freely)
