New exhaust hangs to low
I just got my new exhaust on my car today.I got a DC header,Megan high flow cat and the evo2. when I got it all on it hangs really low where the two pices of the cat back hook together. It only 2 inches or so off the ground.Anybody have this prob or know how to fix it? Any help would be great!!!!

just cut the hangers and weld them up a little higher. make sure that you take good measurements
I dunno if this will help, but it might be worth a try...
Loosen all the bolts/nuts that hold the exhaust together. Push all of the exhaust upward, retighten all the bolts/nuts. I think Sport Compact Car did something like that on one of their project cars. If I remember right, the rear muffler hung a bit low, so they did the loosen and tighten idea. They actually got it too high, and had to adjust again.

I tried loosening everything and then adjusting it but when I tighten it back up it all goes the wrong way.it doesn't even sit under the heat shield. It's about 4 inches to the passenger side and it hangs literally only 2 inches off the ground.With the springs sagging in the rear to I can't even drive the car.
