Y pipe Clearance Issue I just installed my Pacesetter headers and TSP catted Y. The drivers side of the Y pipe is so low that i cant hardly drive over speed bumps. Its almost a nightmare. Right now i have a borla mouth.
The reason that i got the catted y is because i kinda wanted to keep it quiet. I do a LOT of highway driving and long trips.
I've had the Y pipe off several times to try to adjust it to where it doesnt hang so low but im just not having much luck. Its not the cats that are low its the pipe itself. What do yall suggest?
Are true dual setups pretty high up? Do you have to weld anything with TDs? Is there such a thing as a TD that is quiet (dumped). Do ORYs offer more clearance?

maybe you are lucky cause y pipes usually tend to be too high up so they rub the bottom of the car.
I would like to see pics of just how low it sits cause my y pipe (ORY) is very high up (still rubs every now and then) and I still have issues of scraping with some of the larger speed bumps. Also my car is stock height so I think it is just the 3" piping!

sorry. had to. my TSP catted Y sits a little low on the d/s as well, not much else I can do to adjust besides a 30 LB sledge
I have about 6 inches of clearance, and a rubber stop mounted between the pipe and the floor, works fine.
