quick exhaust question...
i finally have a new universal exhaust that i need to put on. it was my sisters old one that i "bArrowed" from her after she put on the greddy evo...anyhow, i have 2 1/2 custom piping, crush bent, and thats fine, but my main problem is where it goes up over the lca and then down, that is where it is crushing at...
question
can i run the piping under the lca and then out from more of a straighter flow?

yea... if u go under, the muffler is gonna be hella low. i have 2.25 from cat to muffler, custom crush bent. they tried to bend as little as possible. a good muffler shop will make the kinks pretty smooth

On the other hand Tirod...he got his exhaust for free and he just need to make it work for him so i don't think that's very feasible to go and get all new piping made.
I think that if you can straighten it out and run it under...go for it but the gains won't be too great unless the bend that you're talking about cuts the diamter down to like 1" consdering the rest of your piping is crush bent.
