I Just installed a magnaflow catback system to my 99 civic sedan and the whole center section hangs to low to the ground. I bolted everything tight and secure, but it still hangs low. Is this a common problem for people who installed these ? What can I do to fix the situation.

 

i have the same problem. what i did was use a pole jack to keep it agenst the body when i tightened it, and kept the clamp tucked up near the body so it wouldnt catch on the ground.

 

WELL IM SURPRISED SUM1 HAS A MAGNAFLOW OTHER THAN ME.THE BEST THING TO DO FOR UR CAT IS REPLACE IT WITH TEST PIPE INSTEAD OF CAT. CONV. IT GIVES MORE POWER N A LIL MORE NOISE.ULL LIKE IT BUT U MUST PUT THE ORIGINAL CAT. CONV. WHEN UR GOING TO EMISSION OR U WILL FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

that emissions does come into play - sounds like a lot of work.
(please, take it easy with the caps - like shouting )

 

nvm

 

Most people on this site have magnaflows. And unless you want a cheap sound w/ your magnaflow, don't put a test pipe in place of the cat.
