I recently lowered my car and the resonator sits low. Is there anyway to cut the hangers smaller so it wont sit as low? I know this a common problem w/ apexi so any help is appreciated

 

take it to a muffler shop see if he can tuck it in alittle more. but you have to remember by doing that you might hit the heat shield and have more heat around your shifter

 

^ Thats what i was thinkin, i scrape everywhere, NY streets

 

I've been having the same exact issue with my WSII......but it makes up for it in drivability (sound).

 

^ Were u able to remount it so it sits higher?

I plan on doing it sometime next week when I get a chance

 

shorter hangers

 

i have a resonator on my exhaust (dunno what brand) and it has scraped so much that it leaks, so i would definately get it fixed.

the best bet would be this.

i had that problem, i made shorter hangars and that really didnt fix the problem...i just bought some piping and my mechanic did it really nice and now nothing hits and the beauty that is still bolt on...when i had it sittin low i went over a speed bump a metal one and my whole piping got fucked up some how it got ripped off....good luck

How is that even possible? Did you custom fab your exhaust?

 

he put the mid-pipe on upside down. It still bolts up the same. I thought I did this when I did mine, on my EF hatch, but it turns out the bend that goes toward the ground (that scrapes) goes around the shift linkage, so I couldn't flip it.

 

Keep in mind that with the stock exhaust short shifters for some reason rub. So don't move it to close.

 

do you have a EK hatch?

 

mine was like that until it cracked open...
i replaced the resonator and fixed the issue

 

I found out today that my resonator was only held on by one rubber hanger and that when I had the shop weld on another hanger (there was only one before) the scraping has gone away.
