Longtubes with Lowered Cars Alright guys i picked up some pacesetter longtubes and the pacesetter ORY. Im having someone install it for me, but my question is how bad is driving it going to be? My car is lowered, and the stock Y pipe is a little over 3.5 inches from the bottom of the Y-pipe to the ground. How much ground clearance amd i gonna sacrifice with the headers and ORY. Is it going to be real bad? Thanks for the help guys

I have pacesetters and their ORY on my car. It's lowered about 1.5'' front and rear it's not bad except you have to take it slow and be careful on speed bumps and steep inclines. I've never scraped my headers but I've scraped the Y pipe like two times in the two months I've had it lowered.

You shouldn't have any problems to deal with. But like stated.. always ALWAYS try to angle and go as slow as you can over bumps and steep inclines. I would just avoided them if at all possible. I have SLP LT's and I'm lowered and I'm just extremly careful with no scaping issues.
