It all depends on what type of feedpipe you have. If you have the standard U-Turn type turbo feed pipe, then there is only 1 way to run the downpipe and that is below the tranny. It will hang stupidly low, even if you run it as close as possible to the tranny. That's how mine is right now, and it's annoying. Now that I have a spare motor and tranny for mockup purposes, we're working on redoing it. I'm trying to build a feedpipe that doesn't come down in the stock Y-Pipe location at all. That way, I can use that tunnel between the oilpan and tranny to run the downpipe and not lost any ground clearance.

yeah i kinda figured that i would need to use oval piping but either way its going to be a really tight fit either way. i wish someone would just make feed and down pipes for our cars......instead of charging like 6grand for a 3thousand dollar kit
