I've had enough ground clearance issues in my life to have a decent idea of what works and what doesn't. And running pipes that should be solidly fixed to the chassis under a moving suspension part with lots of travel does not appeal to me.

I don't think you aren't going fast enough to need what I believe you are considering. There are plenty of systems out there that will handle your needs. Don't get let in hype and lure sway your decision, and don't reinvent the wheel.
The camry has a pipe that runs pretty low in around the same spot, so it really isn't such a bad comparison. My concern isn't the axle, my concern is the pipe being that low. I suppose this isn't the place to further inquire the issue, so I'll just ask my question elsewhere.

It's the sound really. The sound is far more throaty, and that is what I want to try. I just figure if I'm spending the money for a new exhaust, I want to get something I can use for future engine builds as well.
