Want to finish the exhaust and get some tail pipes on to the car. Have my NJ inspection coming up and need to run out the back.

With going over the axle, I am worried about the tight drivers side, bang the axle or body and roasting the fuel pump wires

With going under the axle, I am worried about clearance, hitting stuff, and bottoming out

So which is the lesser of two evils?

Also, it worth mentioning that it's too late to run both pipes up over the passanger side as I already have invested in the side-by-side setup. Can't redo what's already done



May lower the car in a year or so. Springs have been already waiting a year to go on, so who knows if I'll ever do it.

Let me hear some good and bad stories.

Thanks,

 

Run both pipes down the passangers side, go over the axle. There is roon for the two pipes (2 1/2 inch pipes). Then run both pipes out the rear in the stock location.

 

^^ what he said. 2 1/2 inch pipe is plenty unless you got one hell of a car. both pipes go voer drivers side like a cat-back. if youre worried about banging BMR sells a panhard rod lecoation kit that allows you to run 2 3" pipe so that shoould solve any clearanc eissues you may be afraid of. also gonig over the axle gives you more ground clearance

 

Too late for that now. Can't redo what's already done. Edited post to mention that.

 

I have mine under the axle. I have yet to bottom out on anything. As long as the pipe is higher than your differential housing, its not going to scrape/bottom out the pipes. Here is a picture of what I have.


True duals under the axle.

 

I would go under the axle. See the end of the True Duals Sticky for my pics. Its a lot cheaper, easier, and should flow a lot better. I have yet to have my axle drop down and slap the exhaust.

 

I went over, and it seems like it was a hassle to do any kind of work on the car. Looks better in my opinion though.

 

could just dump it before

 

i have posted pics in the TD sticky bottom of pg 4, also i made post here too on the external Engine section jsut do a search on my name and look at my pics.. BTW i went under the axel

 

I went over the axle, but I'm not sure if its even possible to go over the drivers side. I've never seen that. There are pics of my exhaust on page 2 of my car domain site in my sig.

 

You know how I roll......









Actually I have a Y-pipe now.

 

traitor.

 

then you haven't seen mine yet.

 

I've still got the duals on my backporch, so I haven't fully cashed in yet.

 

Got any pics of the clearance over the axle. I responded in your thread.

I dig your cutouts and always wanted some after my X pipe.

 

I say go over the axle. I have kooks headers and true duals over the axle all the way back to the tips. 3'' all the way and both pipes goes over on the passenger side. I do have the bmr upper panhard bar and relocation kit for the lower panhard bar which gives more room. But i can even lower my car another 1.5 inches and still have clearance. I woudlnt do it any other way.

 

over...under looks backyard/cheap/homegrown..[although nothing wrong with homegrown.]....

 

Under.. i think if done correctly they look good.

 

Over the axle.

 

Looks SILLY under. did you or are you thinking of putting a roll bar/cage on the outside of your car also.???
