What To Do About Y-Pipe Clearance w/LTs?
What To Do About Y-Pipe Clearance w/LTs? Hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone has figured out this issue yet. I have lowering springs on my car and LTs w/a custom y-pipe. I don't want to change the springs back to stock, but I can't keep scraping on everything.
Has anyone figured out a solution to the y-pipe clearance w/a lowered car?
If I have another custom Y made w/smaller pipe maybe? I really don't want to go back to that God awful stock Y.
Help!
Thanks

The scraping is bad enough to warrant a thread to ask about solutions. Most speed bumps are out of the question and anything that is a steep incline requires the car to be at an angle to clear it (rather than normal head on).
Get a Vette!
Seriously though, you can only do so much to tuck a 3" pipe under there, especially if you're lowered. I'm on Eibach pro-kit's like you, with QTP LT's/ORY. Best you can do is adjust/tuck the exhaust up as high as possible and drive carefully.
I'm surprised how close to the ground it can be, while still barely ever scraping on anything.

They did. But to use 3" pipe there's only so much you can do. I'm convinced they designed our cars without exhaust in mind.

OR, switch to a 2 1/2 y-pipe
