Default No room for mufflers!!!

My car is so low that if I fit the flowmaster mufflers that I was intending I will only have about 3" of ground clearance. I am having a rethink and was wondering if anyone had used the supertrapp disc only muffler on the end of their headers? If so did it reduce the noise much?

It's not low enough if your not bumping and grinding....

Just curious, how much clearance under your headers if you only have 3" at the flow masters? That's were my bumping and grinding takes place, has to about the worst feeling ever!

Default Spintech

Check out their oval mufflers - they will get you some more ground clearance.

Have you looked in some of the low profile SpinTech mufflers or....if you want to stay w/ Flowmaster, look at the HushPower mufflers/bullets.
