I current have a 91 hatch and i have the 3" hks exhaust and mine is kinda low around the resonator and alil around the bend near the diff. i tried changing the rubber hangers in the those to areas but still is kinda low. and my car is on AGX/S.tech. Is there any other solutions to maybe raise it?

Yeah mine is really low, b/c I'm running Intrax springs with Tokico shocks/struts. So I scrape all the time. I hate it, I was thinking about getting some s-techs.Josh

Do you even have room to raise the exhaust? What about bending the hangers or using shorter/adjustable ones (that wrap around the can/piping)...

quit your complaining. My car is pretty much slammed now and my lip sits about 2 inches max off the ground. Weld some small skit plates on the exhaust. I also jacked up the exhaust on the resonator, to shove it up further and added an extra mount.

Be thankful you were smart and bought a quality catback. Those skid plates on the resonator and can are there for a reason. My HiPower scrapes from time to time, but I only have a 25mm drop front, 15mm rear (on 205/50 tires, add 10mm drop F and R) so I don't hit that often.
