    How's it for ground clearance? I had 2 1/2 on one of my cars once, and it was pretty tight to the body, and it would scrape on speed bumps.

    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    That's the biggest i've seen! Not counting the turbo cars on here which run like 4/5". Bigger pipes=deeper sound, smaller pipes= louder sound. So that explains the quite part. Best it sounds awesome though! :)

    Dave it's not bad at all it's higher than the header collectors I kicked it up some from there and ran straight back with it speed bumps are okay but car is not lowered any right now thinking about a 1 inch drop in the front and two out back we'll see .......

    Yeah, I would think if it was lowered, it might get into some tight spots, it would be a shame to scratch it. (y)

    Sure but it's a bit pricey I have in materials with coating cost 800.00 and all total if you add labor it's like 1500.00 but nothing out there even comes close to it. I have 4 inch on my 64 T-bolt and run it back to back at Virginia Motorsports Park with and without the exhaust and the car was only 5 hundreds quicker and we attribute that to the weight of the 4 inch complete system and its over 100 lbs.
