Installed SLP LM1/X-Pipe...hangs too low
While I was home a few weeks ago from Iraq, I had my exhaust (LM1 and SLP X-Pipe) installed by the local exhaust shop. The guy who installed it told me when I picked my car up that the exhaust hangs about an inch and a halh lower than stock did, and after looking under the car and scaping over some larger speed bumps, I agree with him. Anone haveany suggestions? All I can think of is to have the exhaust shop cut and reweld the hangers to bring the system up a bit, which will have to wat until June when I am home again. Other than that small problem, The exhaust is great and sounds amazing with my K&N intake and Professional Products upper plenum and 70mm throttle body.

i would put the car up on a lift and loosen up everything and re adjust and twist and spin the piping till it sits up higher i took me a little while to get mine up tight
i have the lm'2 and they sit higher than the stock stuff
good luck

slp x pipes blow. After scraping my cats on everything for like a year i switched to bassani which tucked 100x better and never scrapes except on horribly built speed bumps. MY slp cats were damn near flat when my x pipe was removed and they were still about an 1 3/4 in the ground. Dont waste your time or money, live with it or sell it and get a new x pipe or go catless.

My buddy put a jack where the X/Crossover in and jacked up the mid-pipe n tighted it that way. He said it helped.
Edit: I found this link for you for a guy that had the same problem as you and fixed it. Nice pics also.
