Yes it does I've only took it off once to hear the difference I may get a electric later on Like the qtp or something but I wanna get a new exhaust first then do it and far as the suspension I was thinking of going with the Koni f4-f3 with the bmr sp001 lowering springs have you heard good things about those?

Here in mass you aren't suppose to modify your exhaust but they usually don't make a big deal as long as you have cats. I see your from CA and your laws are a lot tougher. A lot of people there have problems running longtubes. As for scraping, you can see they are tucked up pretty tight. No scraping. I'm even confident low in it another inch to inch and a half.

Ohh yea bro they are no joke out here as far as smog and emissions so that means I'd have to go with shorty headers? And they look very good on your car I'm pretty shure that thing sounds like a beast
