Side Exhaust...

The 2000 R setup is the Kar Kraft setup, which is basically the SVO (FRPP) setup minus the side skirts. If fabrication is not a reasonable option I would go with that one because of clearence and cost.

But the suspension I'm considering, is the Steeda 5 link to go along with the rest of the Steeda suspension I currently have, and with it matches up well to. It is expensive at $1100, in addition to the parts I already have. Between the panhard rod and the how the 2 upper parallel links are mounted (parallel being the operative word here), its pretty effective at blocking a rear exit exhaulst.

At this point its an idea. I'm considering the total cost of the setup. But the people I've talked to who are in the know, some of which had atleast(if not better) a bird's eye view of the development (pre-Steeda; drudis and turbolx from this site for example) consider it to be an extremely good design.

Anyway, I spent a lot of time (not to mention money) picking my current exhaust setup (FRPP ceramic shorties, Bassani X-pipe, Dynomax Ultra-Flows) and I am quite pleased with it. I would prefer to preserve it if possible. That and I know a shop that will do the cutting, bending, and welding for a reasonable price, much less then the aproximently $500 for an exhaust setup which I consider inferior to my current one.
