Exhaust setup for low cars - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

i have a perrin exhaust and i'm on RCE lowering springs and i'll scrape my frame rail or my resonator on my ark mid pipe before i hit my catback.

im dropped 2" on stance coilovers and have perrin 2.5" exhaust. i only scrape on those parking lot entrances that go up and then down pretty sharply.

plus im not trying to SLAM the car, just a 2 inch drop

I was also just thinking of putting my stock midpipe and getting a muffler and a cat delete

I got a full header-back system done on my Corolla for about $120.
Buying a system from a vendor was ~$250 without installation.

The tone though, you're correct. No real guarantee on that.

I think oval tubing is 120 per foot lol

The problem here is that there is room inbetween the piping and the axle or whatever that is, so i might ask my local shop to cut the hangers and mount the exhaust higher.. but im scared that it might cause vibration...

damn lol. I was more responding to someone's suggestion to raise it closer to the body via a custom setup. Good to know though

Stay away from a 3" system and h&r super sports. So much scraping

BRZ_Kamil · 02-12-2015, 09:43 PM

Do you have the v1 exhaust?

FRSGT86 · 02-12-2015, 11:08 PM

I'm on KW-V3s and what scrapes for me is the resonator in the center when going into my drive way, been thinking about having it cut out and replaced with straight pipe instead but I'm hesitant because I don't know what it would sound like. Anybody go that route that can tell what it would do to the exhaust note?
