so i just installed my catback exhaust from zpi today. and i noticed it sitting pretty low off of the car. and as i was driving, i realized that it is so low, that it scrapes when i take off, or go over any little bump. any suggestions on how to fix this?

 

get rid of your s-techs, lol. Whats scraping? the midpipe? muffler? s-pipe?

How it sound BTW

 

I would suggest changing the S-tech for Htechs or Hotchkis springs

 

yeah its the angle of the can, it would be really hard to change it. if you do get a shop to raise the can slightly , the tip would look odd.

i use to have zpi exhaust

 

the muffler is the thing scraping. and i dont really want to get rid of my stechs. i love thedrop. but i am thinking tht i might switch to tein coilovers.

it sounds nice, but a little loud. and i am having a resinator put in, because my dc header makes it a bit raspy.

 

I had the same problem with my zpi exhaust with H-techs on some crappy roads, but its fine now with my new K-Sport coilovers :D

 

I have H-techs and I never had a problem with it scraping but it does look like it sits low enough where it dips under the rear suspension that it could happen.

 

wow never thought about my exhaust scraping, im looking into getting a set of s-techs, but i have the megan drift spec exhaust, do u guys think i would have any problems with scrapping and such?

 

i got the same set up. just take your time when you go over speed bumps and up driveways. the part that will scrape is mostly on the rear passenger side so dodge accordingly. i dont scrape when i take off tho. Having passengers in the back will make you scrape even more.

 

yeah. i definetly try to keep passengers out of my backseat now. if i can't avoid it, i have them sit behind me, on the left side. well i did, before i wrecked my car two days ago. i just caused 4,200 dollars in damage to the side of it. i "drifted" into a mailbox... one of those heavy duty ones for a business....

 

Kenny had S-techs on one of their shop tC's with the exhaust on it. He had 19inch rims on the car, so I would presume it might have raised it out of harms with larger wheels. Are you on stock wheels/tires? I'm sure the exhaust hangers could be adjusted if you took it to your local muffler shop.

 

i was originally on 18's but i have since went back to stock. soon the 19's will be getting put on, as soon as i get the car fixed.
