there is a good thread in this section about oval exhaust on a lowered vehicle. it has pics. looks real good with lots of clearance. also looks like it wont be cheap. i myself am going to try the car chemistry collector inserts

Trax is running deep into the 11's with single 3" through an ultra flow Dynomax in the stock location. According to Dynomax's website the formula for exhaust CFM needed to support your HP is HPx2.2=CFM needed to support your engine without hindering horsepower output. I am probably switching back to single 3" from dual 3" because I want to lower my car more.
