Having studied many frames, in pics and in real life, it seems i can put mine right under the seats. there is a square trough there, but i'm not sure why. I figure if i just 'shave' that trough, and glass it back flat, there'll be room. Its not gonna be optimal for ground clearance, but my car wont be lowered, so there's that. I'm going to put a true X-pipe as close to the engine as possible, so i'll be trimming the holes in my crossmember too. I think it'll all work. I want the whole tucked up nice and high. I'm using 3", and small (6"x12") Spintechs.
