is there any clearance issues with the convertors on these pipes? The car has the stock ride height for now...possible pro-kit in the next month or so. Also is there tips or tricks that might come in handy for the install? I'm planning on doing it on a lift at the dealership that I work at so that will be a easier.

I am not aware of any clearance issues. If you can get a second set of hands to help you it would be great because you'll need to align the mufflers and tail pipe before tightening them up. Also spray some WD40 on the ends before connecting. They'll slide on easier. And be ready for a very loud exhaust! LOL! Seriously, this bad boy is one of the loudest out there. I absolutely LOVE the beveled tips. Best on the market IMO. Let us know how you like the sound.

I noticed that the cats do seem to hang pretty low (lower than those on the stock H). I've heard others here say that it's because they are so big. I'm not lowered at the moment and I don't scrape going over speed bumps. I plan on going with the pro kit at some point and I think the clearance should be ok. If it's not, I may just swap out the cats for race pipes.

Thanks for the input everybody... I'll talk one of the tech's into staying late some night to give me an extra set of hands. Any one of them would do it for a 12 pack. Matching it up to my LM1's should produce a pretty nasty sound!!!
