Hey all! I know some of you how large of a tire I'm running the rear (315/35/17) and have already had to remove the quad shocks, and relocate and first cut off the pipes, then bend and pinch the hell out of new, hideously ugly custom pipes. Yeah, I didn't know what a PITA it would be when I ordered those monster Yokos

Anyways, I'm losing a good amount of power through my .5 inch pipes, so I'm either going to run the Steeda or Borla side exhaust kit. However, I've also been wanting to install subframe connecters because I have terrible chassis twist...so bad that my driver's door doesn't even look shut (don't ask how it happened, I have NO idea, and I obviously don't have THAT much power). My question is, since I can't run ordinary subframes with the exhaust kit, how else can I beef up the suspension? I've been told my only other option is a 6 pt cage, but that would make daily driving more a hassle, and I never drag race nor go 11.99 or less.

Any other suggestions?
