Default Mugen Twin Loop Problems

I just had a twinloop installed on my 00 itr, and i discover that where the exhaust bends over the rear LCA it hits it if i go over a bump and knocks the rubber bushing off. I have my car lowered right now, and in the tire is tucking inside the fenderwell. Is my car just too low? i have ground control coilovers, i just wanted to be sure this is the problem before i start raisng the back up again.

If the tire is inside the wheel well, it is too low. Why would you need to lower an ITR that much?

Most exhaust design for OEM height or slight lower, not for lowriders.

nope found the problem, but its too low right now anywways, its going up.

the hanger for the cansiter on the muffler didnt have a "nipple" on it so it kept sliding off. I put a hose clamp on the end to keep this from happening, so far, no problems

Raise it up.....it won't look as pimptastic.....but it will give you more grip and even tire wear.
