Arrow Angle Exhaust & Tipping

Im planning to do custom 2.25 piping and getting a muffler installed witht that... But before I do, I want to get some things understood...

* I want to create an angle exhaust. Meaning, the muffler pointed a bit to the right side. How do I do that exactly? Do I have to buy diff. pipes for that look? Will it cost more for the extra pipe and for the installation?

* I also want to tuck the muffler in a bit. I dont really want it to hang way to low on the ground and scrape anything. How?

* I really hate wacthing people muffler sway around whenever the car moves left and right. How do I keep mine from doing that? Are there special "strut bars" for mufflers?

the exhaust routing goes between the passenger side rear suspension. Unless you did some real aggressive (restrictive) bending after that there is no way to fit that without aiming the muffler into the middle of the car. Use the K.I.S.S. method do what works, dont reinvent the wheel man, most of the time the results are below satisfactory. you can trim out some of the bumper to raist the muffler up a lil. going too nuts with the chopping looks like hell though.

Mine angles like that, but it runs underneith the gas tank and rear suspension, and comes down the middle of the back of the car. then it bends about 20* and points off to the right.
