And what happens when the car lifts and the suspension extends all the way out? Wont it push down on the exhaust?
Way way way too much talk about something as simple as an exhaust system. If you are worried about flow, Im sure that a nice 4 inch system from Mufflex would work just enough. anything more, its a race car and who gives a eff about exhaust.
u only lose ground clearnce if u run over something in the middle of the road,if u go over a speed bump the pipes will go up with the rear axle,my turbo inlet and down pipe run under my front crossmember and i have never bottemed them out on anything,and we have some pretty ****** roads around here,when i go over speedbumps/etc the pipes go up with the car since they are pretty much on the centerline of the tiires
