hey guys, i was just wondering which downpipe was most snug, and had the most ground clearance. Ive noticed the greddy/megan downpipes hang quite low. The rsr was a bit better, but still hung under the chassis. My question is really pointed towards the blitz and the apexi gt-spec. a buddy of mine had the hks downpipe and it had excellent clearance, but id really like to get some feedback from the blitz or apexi. thanks

I have a blitz downpipe that doesn't scrape too bad. It takes a pretty big/steep speedbump to hit it. If you want mad clearance I believe HPI makes a downpipe that splits into 2 smaller pipes and runs into a 3" collector. Thats kind of neat. But HPI means it'll probably be expensive. Hope that helps!

They are selling 1-2-1 Downpipes over here now for cars that are lower...basically, After the connection off the Turbo outlet/Elbow, it splits into two smaller pipes for clearance issues, then back to One 80 mm at the end to bolt up to the cat or Test Pipe...cool stuff...not sure if I can find a link to one sold in the states though..

my blitz is almost d-shaped from scraping all the damn time. phase2 sells a snake-looking one that some guys were discussing here earlier, i think. replaces your turbo outlet at the same time and flattens after the curve for more clearance.
