I put a Megan B pipe on my car and had problems with speed bumps hitting the resonator. I was able to tweak it up higher and eliminate the problem with a floor jack and some wooden blocks.

I guess it's pretty common. Could be that with the style of muffler with the outlet coming straight out and needing it to be lower to clear under the rear lip just drop the whole exhaust lower. If you look at the HPF option sport muffler the outlet of the muffler drops down a couple inches then straightens out to allow the rest of the exhaust to stay tucked up higher.

I just thought of all this. lol

haha. I'm still kind of jealous of myself. I just took the car for a good hour run across the city and down the freeway. The sound is awesome and at freeway speeds when you're just cruisin along it's almost completely silent inside the car, but then step on it and it has a deep growl.

Off topic, but what size & offset are the rims you're running? Fenders rolled? They look freakin awesome.

Just bought my wife a new lancer sportback. Ordered some fog tint from peter to start modding that for her. Not much to do to it. Leather, navi, rockford fosgate system with 10"sub,hids, moonroof, 18s all came stock. Trying to talk her into lowering, that will take much time. Tint windows 35%, tint fogs yellow, paint in bay, fender washers, and intake for now. Debadgged rear already.
