Default apexi n1 custom pipe

hey guys just need some opinions

my dc2r is lowered 1 inch .. and at the moment stands quite close to the ground..

i want to know of whether to get the custom pipe made over or under axle..

indefinitely .. underaxle will give me more performance.. but will it scrape?

and will i lose that much power going over axle??

if lowered only 1 inch should not be really a big problem, other than really steep driveways and road humps. but if you plan to lower it more than an inch i would go over the axle.

Power difference is negligible at the most maybe 2kw?? but when i changed mine to under axle i felt less hesitation to rev out quicker and a bit more throttle response.

should i go for a 2.5" pipe with resonator (of so how big??)

or a 2.25" pipe with no resonator ( or am i asking to be pulled over by the cops)

I daily drive my car with a under axle like that.
get a 2.5" system with a resonator.
i dont think adding a straight thru (hot dog ) resonator will yield a considerable power loss.

tofuR u have dc2 or dc5?

Ohhhhh, are you the guy who bought erwins car?? if so his car isnt very low i use to drive his car once in a while and never scraped in car parks or bad driveways.. I have his under axle exhuast setup on my car now, it scrapes more but my car is also lower than his.

But if you want to be safe just go with over the axle ...
