Looks good compared to other pictures I have seen. I've got Lane's duals on the way and when I install them (May probably) I'll be sure to post pictures.

Yep! Looks pretty good to me. They best I've seen is those pics on exhaustsounds.com with the coke can completely under the pipes, and the worst I've seen is where the can wont even roll under the pipe on its side I'd say yours are perfect.

I'm hoping for close to that. Clearance is a big deal for me. I went with 3" duals for power though. What size are yours?

looks good to me. What kind of headers do you have? I have a kit from Lanes on the way, and I'm hoping for coke can clearance or more.

Nice clearance. I wish mine was that good. I guess I just didn't spend enough time adjusting the system.

If you want even more clearance, get the band clips, i have ripped those you have on right there. But, that was a freak thing on the highway with a 1 foot pot hole, not happy.

This is the TSP true duals, 3in all the way. I have jet-hot longtubes. Camaro99ss what do you mean by flipping the hangers sideways? His hangers are the way mine are. Also, I haven't had any banging with the way it is currently positioned. I set these up in my garage on my back, with the car about a foot off the ground. So I guess I did alright. Thanks for all the comments guys!

The rear hangers are pointed vertically so that the lowlest point on the whole exhaust are the bolts. If you flip those hangers sideways, you'll gain some clearance.

I assume you mean the clamps. I have band clamps so it wouldn't apply to me. I thought you were talking about the hangers at the back of the muffler that bolt to the car.
