Default downpipe ground clearance?

What kind of clearance do you guys have from the downpipe to the ground?
Anyone have pics?

I had clearance issues on my last setup w/ my 2.5" downpipe because the fabricator obviously didn't take much time slapping it together

but my new manifold and DP (listed in sig) have great clearance...the 3" dp tucks against the oil pan and has almost 0 chance of hitting the ground unless i do something stupid..

Lowest part on the car is the flex section i had put in on the downpipe. Im running a 2.5" downpipe and 3" exhaust but the flex section is much bigger than 3". Depends on how low your car is. If your car is slammed expect to have some clearance issues, but for the most part you should be fine.

if you get a manifold/dp combo from a company that is well respected for their craftsmanship, you shouldn't have to worry about clearance issues.....so basically pick from most anyone in the Marketplace and you'll be fine
