Yeah looks like BERK sits way lower. I have pics just being lazy posting them. Will be up soon enough. The sound clip is amazing though props to you. Running any headers?

Stock headers. I think that would be a touch too loud for streets with my set up

Alright got some pics. This is on swift springs only. If I go coils I think these pipes wont last with Houston roads. If you look closely you can see I already scraped a good amount off, at least a 2" flat span on the lowest part of the CBE going 35-40mph over small dips in a 50mph area. Bleh.

Wow that's really low. If your pipes are that low?, how low are the muffler?

Mine definitely isn't that low. It actually sits uncomfortably close to that cross member above the exhaust. I wonder if they screwed yours up?
