    Standard exhaust clearance (?)

    Had to replace turbo to cat downpipe with another standard item. Cats seem to sit much lower to the ground than originally ( but are attached at their front brackets correctly ) and I have seen other S2 coupes where the exhaust system is all but hidden from most angles away from the car. Clearance now means I have to avoid roads with the "individual" type speed humps. Can anything be done apart from custom turbo back systems ?

    Can you repair your old one and swap back??? Just a thought.

    I have recently changed my CATs back to Bypass pipes and have noticed the exhaust grounding where previously it never did. I know this is not the same case as yours but sometimes the way it is fitted together can make a difference..,

    Just my 2p's worth.

    Cheers,

      Thanks Steve, I thought about that.....it was enough trouble replacing it the first time round, I might try a good exhaust place and see if the "set" of the cats can be altered by re adjusting the flange bolts.
