DS loop clearance Which loop will clear ok with the Kooks y-pipe and the Qtp y-pipe? Not sure which way I'm going yet but I'm putting in a 12 bolt new drive shaft and loop all at the same time as well. Will the SLP or BMR or any suggestions?

I have the QTP y-pipe with cats and SLP loop. If I remember correctly I have about a half inch of clearence between the y-pipe and loop. I haven't had any problems with it, but then I am using poly mounts.

You see that triangular part? That'll clear any Y-pipe! Cept maybe a big aftermarket flowmaster collector or something. The BMR and others are nice ones too but hang a little too low for my tastes. Trending Topics

yea I have a Lakewood DSL with my Mufflex Y, which is same as the QTP Y and I don't have any problems with it. The spohn is the same design as the Lakewood, but you can it powdercoated either black or red, but it's also twice as much ($95). Here's a pic of the Spohn....
Not meaning to hijack the thread, but did anyone have to disconnect their aftermarket y-pipe from the exhaust to get the Lakewood on? I messed with it a little over the weekend and couldn't figure out a way to get the crossmember piece positioned over the y-pipe and back down to connect to the brackets that bolt to the car. Didn't have enough clearance to position it in place and didn't feel like messing with the exhaust at that point. Thanks for any info. 
Does anyone run the Lakewood or BMR w/ TSP duals? My current BMR wouldn't clear the QTP OR Y-pipe I had. 
If the BMR doesn't work w/ my duals - it's for sale and I'll be looking for something else.
