Default how should i do my exaust?

like the title says im getting ready to do full 3" from the turbo back to the muffler. Im gonna build it now so i dont have to later for the built motor. i have two drawings that i have designed.

design 1
and
design 2

tell me what you guys think will look and flow the best

the car isnt a daily driver so the accasional scrape and bottom out wont really hurt that much

design two, since it only has one bend which will probably flow better.

I think in the second picture you drew the angle on the bend is a bit over exaggerated. A slight angle on the exhaust coming out the back looks sexy.

i think a slight angle, but not out of the corner. Too much would look pretty ricey like you were trying to do somethin really unique just to stand out. Idk, either straight point ot a SLIGHT angle

Side exit exhaust infront of the passenger tire[8D]

AHAHAH!! In all seriious though, i say the first one, cause you can get it so it doesn't hang down and wil give you more ground clearance underneith

I concur. Just follow the path of the OEM exhaust

Do you concur?...yes i concur lol. Im with them, although the angled exhaust do look really sweet on some cars. I was going to do it, but the shop says it would restrict air flow and wouldnt fit the cut out of my bumper.

+1 on that. I think one of the sickest things about the back end of Civics is the exhaust cut out.
