Had NO effect on clearance, I've never touched anything on it. It's mounted horizontally in line with the rear wheel so there is no issue with speed bumps or backing up into curbs or anything.

this is wher i put mine. I still havent got it fully welded up and the hang welding on. I have had this on for a month or so now. I have hit one 2foot tall speed bump with cut out. Other than that no problem. So with it welded up and the hanger put up Should neverhave a problem.

There's a noticeable difference up top in power, I got it installed last August and have since only capped it up once for a day so I don't remember how big of a SOTP difference there is. I think I paid $50-60 to get it welded at a local exhaust shop.

well igot the cutout installed it cost me a hundred bucks! and that was the cheapest i could get a quote for! oh well i had recorded my 0-60 times before 5.91 after 5.13 i put it on under the rear passenger tire area same as red 03gt he didnt turn it down toward the pavement at all so hopefully that doesnt cause problems
Cost me $25 to cut the cat out and weld the cutout in, installed back myself. Thread Starter

my cutout is right after my res. on my magnaflow system. the wind kinda f*cks it up but you can kinda get the idea. i like it this way better then with the res. off.
