do you have to drop the exhaust to do the x pipe mod???

 

that's a very good question, my exhaust was dropped about an inch or 2 when my X-pipes were done. Sometimes I like it and sometimes it pisses me off because I feel that its not right.

 

When the shop cuts out the OEM resonator, they should suporrt the x-pipe at the proper height before welding it in to place. If they suspended it a bit too high, your tips will drop just a bit and vice-versa. But to answer the original question, you don't need to drop the exhaust to do the x-pipe.

 

they removed my pipes when they cut out the resonator and put it back on. If it's sitting too low, you can always hammer the hangers by the muffler higher/lower till you get it adjusted right. Should only be a $40-50 job at the muffler shop.

 

When I had my done I had no problem at all.
