    Hi everyone. I have a 2010 and I'm thinking about putting in s techs w/ toki blues. I was wondering if that's a good setup and if I'll have any issues with my exhaust or pipes scraping. I have stocky exhaust and pipes. And hoping it's not so low where it'll scrape. Any ideas anyone?

    I will be running Tokico Blue Struts and Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs, the Tein's and Tokico's will be fine. If your lowering, just watch your down-pipe so you don't scrape it.

    K thanks. I didn't know that the stock down pipe will scrape. But I'll remember that.

    You run more of a risk scraping an after market down pipe verses the OEM down pipe, but this will also depend on how low you drop your tC. Just a precautionary measure to keep in mind.

    The s-pipe is probably the lowest section of the OEM exhaust but certain bump/pothole/speed bump combinations could cause the section of pipe in the OEM axle-back where it goes under the rear member.
