Default OBX Headers, Downpipe, HKS Exhaust Installed

Anyone else have this setup? I installed mine the other day and I noticed that the flexpipe sits low... really low.. kinda scares me considering I live in NY... I'm just wondering if anyone else has this issue? I got all of this stuff used off of other users on here.

I have the OBX headers, Megan Racing downpipe and HKS Hi-Power exhaust.
What do you mean by "the flexpipe sits low" ?

It's closer to the ground than stock. I'll try to take pictures soon. The stock pipes had a run in with a brick and thats the only reason I installed these. I know they're plenty of bricks, potholes, driveways, speedbumps, and random debris in NYC just waiting to cause me trouble.

I see that people are getting rid of their y pipes from obx and going with megan and other brands whats the deal with that? no one has totally answered the question about fitment of the header and y pipe for the gs3 that i have read. I have seen gs3 owners use is3 headers but not y pipe or vice versa but my question is if i order the obx header and y pipe for my gs3 would i have any fitment issues? would i need to order the parts separately doing what others did by using is3 headers and megan y pipe?
