xtremex626: nice! iirc you are still on the stock exhaust right? any problems with it? I'm still scraping pretty good even with the clamps on the bushings lol.

yea, im still on my stock exhaust. the only mod i've done to it was raising up the resonators with hose clamps. it gave me alot more clearance to go lower, so i did that. but now i'm back where i was, scraping every where. i cracked a hole in my downpipe already and everything underneath is shaved flat. constantly getting stuck on driveways, cant even get up mine anymore with minimum scraping. oh well haha.

been debating what i want to do in terms of exhaust clearance. im most likely going to delete the 2 resonators in the rear. i want to delete the third one (in the middle), but i'm afraid whenever i do get an exhaust, it'll be too loud and raspy.

haha ya sounds like me right now too. I'm not sure what I wanna do about my exhaust either. I dont want the raspyness too. I thought about deleting those 2 rear ones too, was thinking about just doing that and going back into the stock mufflers for now. But then when I think about it more, its like I might aswell do it all at once hahaha, but I just cant figure out what I want.
