i heard they hang low too. nothing you can really do with it. they are designed that way, and now there is a new revised version which fits better. is your car lowered?

yeah the older ones do hang low. I've seen it on a couple friends cars. No there's nothing you can do about it short of new headers.

Your best bet if you wanna keep them is motor mounts, won't stop the problem completely but it may help, my advice is go with new headers, stainless if anything
