anyone have their car lowered, rear progress sway, and magnaflow? i am lowered 1.5'' and i have magnaflow cat back. just wondering if there is enough clearance i have heard some sway bars hit the exhaust. let me know soon so i can order this stuff.

I'm lowered with the Progress, I've got the stock muffler which is bigger then the magnaflow and there is no problem. HondaMan has the exact setup you're talking about and I've never heard him say anything about problems.

well its not the muffler i;m worried about. the piping is much bigger that goes over the axle. but thanks for the input. i dont think it will be a problem but i like knowing for sure before i buy things.

i've got both (plus sportlines). no problem - plenty of room.

NemesisITR on here has that same setup....infact he did the install today.....and has no swaybar/exhaust rattle problems. He said the bar did the the piping just a little under a very hard corner. I looked under there and there is a lot of room. He has the prokit on his car also.

I am dropped 2" with magnaflow and progress sway, this combo = no problems.

the magnaflow doesn't have fitment problems it's just the HKS that hits 22mm sway bars

It sounds like it isnt lined up all the way. Try taking a no-bounce hammer to it. HTH.
