Magnaflow Setup

Hey Everyone
I am interested in getting a Magnaflow Cat-back System, but I have heard that they either are riding too low to the ground or are either really hiked up to the point that they are hitting the under belly of the car. I don't plan on lowering my car, so please tell me how I can get this thing installed correctly so that I will have maximum ground clearance and not have it rattle against the underbelly.

Thanks
Pat

where ever you have it installed they can adjust it for you so that it doesnt get to low or to high.

People that's got them say to turn the U bolts sideways because that's what drags if they are installed pointing down.

I know a couple guys who have it and had it welded instead of the U-bolts, no probs what so ever. In fact I just ordered one in the group buy for myself.

As Bartkat said you only need to turn the bolts so the open end of the "U" is pointing to the side.
Or as I am planning on going this spring and have a local muffler shop weld it in place for you that way it will stay where you want it.

FYI - There is a new Group Buy going on for the Magna-Flow cat back system, its inthe Group Buy forums.
