Default Lt1 X-pipe

So I am looking at getting headers. Probubly Pacesetter long tubes and I trying to determine if I want to do an x-pipe with bullets and ditch my flowmaster catback. Who has x pipe 3 inch set up? how much ground clearence do you have? anyone have pics? hows clearence compared to offroad y-pipe?

although its not pictured, my X-pipe is now welded directly onto the front of my resonators/bullets/glasspacks what ever you wana call them.. tons of ground clearance and sounds exactly how i want it ..NO DRONE.i changed my setup 4x before i finally settled with this .. TruDuals thru an X then resonators dumped

Use two Flowmaster Venturi reducers 3" x 2.5" and use a 2.5" X pipe system. It will support to well over 500 hp.

Summit xpipe and care is lowered, the header collectors are actually lower than the x and mufflers

depending on how its setup and who installs it you can have great ground clearance. i have pacesetter longtubes and tsp true duals w/ sweet thunder mufflers dumped sitting in my storage waiting to be installed if not ill probably sell them
