Does anyone have any advice on how much you can drop an 98 Cobra with the Borla Side Exhaust without having to worry about it bottoming out?? Any pictures or product recommondations would be appreciated!

Thanks,
John

I'd go with the hooker stuff to goto the catback. I am pretty sure its 1/4th an inch lower then stock (because the pipes are bigger) fitting is great. Same with the others. A well made catback (borla) shouldn't add anything over .5 to that. Wouldn't be a problem

he said side exhaust... and the side exhaust has to go under the jacking rails, which makes the car's ground clearance about 2 inches less...

if you get side exhaust you could still be scraping even at stock height... it's just something you have to learn to live with

I have side exhaust on my '98. It's stock hieght right now and I never scrape. I'm going with the Bullitt springs 1". It will be fine.
