Default dual cutouts/subframe connector clearance?

I'm getting "boxed" subframe connectors this week. bmr or hotchkis, ect ect. Is there going to be any clearance issues between the dual cutouts & subframe connectors? Is there any difference in design or clearance between the different companies boxed connectors?

Not the best pics in the world but this is my setup now, flp headers, 3" hooker ypipe with dual elec cutouts fabbed in. You can't see too good in the pics but i have a few inches of clearance from the floorpan to the cutouts so i plan to get the cutouts rotated a lil bit. Then i'll have more ground clearance (i have to pay attention or the car will drag) -Thanks

By the way it looks any 2 point design SFC should clear fine. I don't think I have ever seen the Hotchkis ones installed so I can't be sure. I think any 2 point design should be fine, you may run into issues on a 3 point design.

Hope that helps,
Ryan

Thanks for the help Ryan.
UMI is the brand i've been looking at for quite some time. Great quality & hard to beat prices.







Will be a good birthday gift to myself, which is this coming sunday.

I am glad to help

I had to edit my first post, I had 3 point in place of 2 point but I think you figured it out. BTW I guarantee satisfaction!
Regards,
Ryan

The UMI connectors came in yesterday. I was going to put them on today, but they wont clear the cutouts. Time to re-think how i want the exhaust.


The connectors do look good Ryan.
