    EP3R Js Racing B Pipe sitting on chasis

    Hi Guys,

    thought it would be a simple exhaust swap over, changed from stock catback system to a Js racing system
    B pipe isn't aligned with the hump in the rail of the chasis for it to go under.. The Bpipe is actually sitting against the rail which causes my car to vibrate under certain RPM's (low and high rpms)

    would anyone have any clues on how to fix this, never happened with the stock system i think that was because of the smaller diameter in piping.

    to clarify things up...
    the left part of the photo is where my b pipe is resting shouldnt it be right in the centre of it to allow clearance for any movement?

        Would slightly lower hangers for the mid-pipe help this? Or maybe trying to lower the exhaust manifold a bit.

        Sucks for EP3/DC5 owners with aftermarket exhausts hey.. either rattle the underside or scrape the mid-pipe all the time :P

          Had a similar issue when installing a friend's J's Racing exhaust on his S2000. We ended up using cable ties to pull the exhaust hangers to a certain angle to avoid it fouling against the chassis.

            Agreed.. Running and aftermarket exhaust on a DC5 on stock height and still scraping !

                How would I run the exhaust manifold any lower?
