I have a single 2 1/4" exhaust pipe going over the axle, and with the new stainless steel braided flex hose, it comes to within about 1" of the exhaust pipe. Should I be worried? How close was the stock rubber pipe to the exhaust? |

The one on my car is more than 1" inch away from the tailpipe (stock exhaust). If your car does'nt have a catalytic converter, I would wrap the hose in some sort of heat resistant wrap, sort of like what they use on headers. If it does have a cat, I would try moving it over some because that tailpipe gets hot with a cat. I think the clearance on my car is a good 3-4 inches. I would try to move it over before I tried anything else. |
