Default A'pexi N1 Muffler and Lowering

What's a good amount to lower a 92 Civic DX from stock height to with an A`pexi N1 Catback system + muffler? I want to lower the car somewhat for handling, but don't want the muffler to drag on ever pothole or inclination.

Ehhh chances are you will hit the muffler no matter what at times. I have a stock setup with a greddy evo and I hit maybe once a month. So............

Any recommendations then on how much to lower from stock?

Hoping someone who actually owns the system will be able to provide some advice that has been in practice.

I would go for the Neuspeed for sports its a 1.75" drop and its looks good. Or just get some Good Coilovers Skunk 2 or ground control and Adjust it to the hight you want

I lowered mine about 2.25" and I think that was the limit. I would scrape my N1 on some speed bumps and inclines.

n1's scrape on almost everything but the roads are shit in PA and most of the people i know with them have their cars crushed

i would recomend nuespeed race springs, they are the perfect drop and ride quality and you should be able to get away with it, i do with my RS-R
