Can anyone with gt exhaust take any pictures of how the pipes are routed and secured past the rear axle and next to the fuel tank. I have the GT valance on my car and I want to make my exhaust exit through the holes and I am just looking for ideas of how it was done.

Thanks

Are you looking for originality? I have the MagnaFlow 2.5" stainless steel exhaust with x-over custom fitted out the GT valance. Let me know if you want pictures.

not looking for originality, I was given a flowmaster H pipe kit, which exits below the valance. I want to modify it to work with my GT valance.

Pics of your setup would be great.

There's only so many ways you can fasten the pipes to the car next to the gas tank. Don't you have or plan to get the stock hangar bracket kits which should work for most diameter pipes. Do you have horizontal holes going through the rear frame rails to which the support brackets would fasten to?

I dont have the stock hanger brackets, the only brackets I have are those that came with the kit, which obviously let the pipes hang too low. I was considering just cutting and modifying them to work. I think the biggest challenge will be to get the correct bends to make the pipe connect after I cut it. I want to try to do this myself but I may need to make a trip to an exhaust shop to have them bend some pipe for me

I do have holes going through the rear frame rails, and the flowmaster brackets bolt into those holes. I am not sure if they are the same holes the GT support brackets use, the car was originally an I6.
