Ok, well i got mufflers on today, and they are low AS HELL. My car is lowered about 2" with some H&R Super Sports and with that and the mufflers, I have about 2-3 " of clearance at the mufflers.
PIC:


Ive heard that if I loosen everything up, then jack it up some it will hold where I jacked it up to. Is this true?

bend the hangers also make sure the exhuast insulaters(pieces of rubber the hold exhuast) are in good shape,

I never would have thought you would get mufflers

Still can'believe you got mufflers. lol

When I reinstall my exhaust, I do the jack trick too, not too much but just to keep them snug up under the car. I don't know if there is enough play to get yours all the way up, but it will probably help some.

Ok I was looking at cutouts and all the electric ones I find are like $200+ each. how much did you pay for those?

Im thinking about just getting some xable ones. Anyone know if those are any good?

i paid $300 for the pair from summit i thought about the cables but i wanted to control both at the same time by a switch which i put in my drivers door.

I look at it this way what i paid for them i could have bought the magnapack i wanted but have not been able to turn down the noise when i wanted and since i get home from work around 12-2am and i live in a sheety homeowners neighborhood and iam pretty sure they would all complain.

the problem i have right now is i cut up my BBK hpipe and welded the cutout pipes in and I need to get it right or else it will leak.

I've got H&R Sports (1.5")and I have 3" of clearance. I just deal with it and scrape the H-pipe. Aftermarket pipes are bigger, and aren't made perfectly. There isn't all that much you can do unfortunately.
