Default Clearance pics w/ 40 series race mufflers.
The car is lowered with bmr 1" springs & the set up consists of 3" from headers into the h-pipe then reduced to 2.5" at the mufflers which are 2.5" as well.. My exhaust guy let me mesage the floorpans a bit for better clearance before finishing it all up.. I'll try to get the car on a lift this weekend at work & get some better pics of the the whole deal.

They look real good, and it looks like you got more ground clearance than i do. And im at stock height with SLP LTs.

looks good. Yeah to do them right and get good ground clearance you have to beat up your rear seat floorbords a bit

Thanks guys!!! She's a 143k all weather daily driver, so yeah the underside is dirty... I had my exhaust guy purposely do the straight/slash cuts, because you can hear the exhaust alot better.. When I had 45* turned downs, the car was bassy as hell & would literally give me a headache when driving it, I couldn't stand it.. The tips I had done give it the raw throaty flowmaster sound that I was looking for.. When I get some time, I'll try to get some vids of it & post them up.
