mac headers questions
i was intrested in going with mac mids for my car for the reason that im going to be lowering it real soon and i dont want to mess with scraping all the damn time lol.
so my question is if i go with macs does the y pipe bang on the floor board like the long tubes do?

Just depends. Most of the time people that care about that and are smart about it at the same time usually take it and have the exhaust custom bent for the specific application. I have had 4 different setups all with custom pipes and never had a bang problem. Y's or X's not one has given me a clearance problem either. If done right it will be a dream. Honestly it costs the same to have an "off the shelf" y-pipe as it does to have Joe John at Bud's mufflers make you one that is gonna fit *correctly*.

Your Y-pipe will be the lowest part of the car reguardless of Longtubes or Mids. The Mac's will not give good power gains. I would get a set of Kooks. The ground clearance is great on them.

I am lowered 2" and I have no problems with my Edelbrocks...Y pipe is lower..just can't fly over speedbumps....just my y will touch over big ones, not the Headers themselves,as said above.
