ground clearance?
Hi all,
I recently just got my exhaust in.
I have hooker 2055's with a Catco 9118 High Flow Cat and American Thunder Catback.
I am posting some pics of where the exhaust is sitting, it seems a little low.
I have sportlines that I was intending to put in, but now Im not sure whether I think thats a good idea or not....
Does it look about right where the exhaust is sitting or should it be up higher?

oh and yeah... thats a bunch of crap I got burned onto my new ceramic coated y-pipe 
I was getting the car out of the garage for the first time, and I had a tarp under the car for working on it all winter / spring and I got it all scrunched up and burned a bunch of it onto my y-pipe before I realized it....
Dunno if there is anyway to get it off now

That does look a little low......my car came stock with the wide mouth cat into 3" pipe and it was no where near that low.........just my
Well, I think I may have to tighten up the bolts from the headers to the y-pipe. I cant remember how tight I got them, so I think that could be a little bit of my issue. I dont think that would bring it up more than an inch. But... that would probably put me where I should be.
I know I have a little tweaking with the muffler in the rear too. Its pointed down towards the front a little too much, and I have the drivers side exhaust tip off a little bit too, it needs to come out some.
