Another aftermarket exhaust ?

This didn't bug me originally but now i seem to keep noticing it & not sure i like how low my exhaust hangs ,i have a Milltek which I'm happy with otherwise,wondering do all the other aftermarket exhausts hang this low .thinking about adding the Techart rear diffuser to cover it or the werks diffuser maybe ,it doesn't scrape i just don't recall seeing others like this.

from what I've seen, they all do. Techart rear diffusor will take of the problem.

My FVD does also, maybe not as much, anyway I think it looks cool.
At least you can tell the stock exhaust has been replaced

Consider it like cleavage . Sometimes things stick out and that can be all good.

Hey Adam,
I now have the Milltek also and at first, it bothered me a little seeing it hanging down but now after two weeks, I don't even notice it there any more.
BTW, the Milletk drones a little at idle w/ my EVOMS tune, more so in Sport mode but as soon as I raise the RPM from idle to 950 RPM, the drone goes away. I do notice it more when the top down though. Does yours drone more at idel? Maybe it has something to do w/ my tune?

Milltek and Werks Diffuser do not love each other. You will have to modify the diffuser alot. Milltek is the only exhaust that has an issue on this. TechArt you should be fine.
