Is it the rear hangars that are causing it to hang low? If so, can't you get a shop/someone to shave those down or something? I have never seen this exhaust so I don't know what is causing it to sit so low...

get stiffer shorter rubber hangers, but check first to see what kind you have on there now.

I have the same exhaust, and i think the main reason it hangs so low is that the muffler is freaking HUGE. I don't know if there is much you can do to not make it hang so low. To tell you the truth I am about to sell mine and get either an apexi or an rsr, since the both aren't as crazy huge and quieter.

Well first let us know what kind of accord you have, second, the greddy evo's are GIGANTIC! Aside from that, go to an exhaust shop and show them your problem, most likely your hangars are too low or the entire canister is just too big and is rubbing against the top. If its too low, they can reweld it so it sucks up, if its rubbing, the canister is too big and you either stick with it or replace it.
