Put few blocks and all is now nice looking, but do you think it causes any excessive stress to CV joints?

This was mine 3" all round

That's on 15's the front looks a little higher but thats due to having more arch gap up front through running lower profile tyres on the front to the back.

And my old one which I believe was approx 2" all round sitting on 13's

the backbox affairs on 340s and 360s are different. 340s arnt much bother, 360s it makes sense to go side exit in front of the rear wheel. then you wont have rubbing on the drive shaft issues.

Thats what i would suggest anyway.
But I know nowt! :lol:

just leave it - i never got round to making a new system and when i got to it - the exhaust was no longer the lowest part of the car - the diff was! it just got dented up and out of the way with no noticable restriction to flow

exhaust wise i made my own that went under the axle and with one smallish muffler sat just in front of the axle for even more clearance and a bigger diameter pipe so a nice meaty roar now
