i have a toda manifold and mugen cat back, the mugen seems to be sat too low because of the way the flange on the toda sits.
has anyone else got the same setup?
the car is only on eibach springs but scrapes on speed bumps, it just doesnt look right

is it a known issue with either the toda or mugen?

Never had any issues with the Toda header and I had many different exhausts (Titanium J's Racing 60RS, Fujitsubo RM-01A, Amuse R1 Titan, Toda dolphin tail cat back, K-tuned, Top Secret titanium).
The quality of Mugen is really good, so it shouldn't be an issue hanging low.

A common issue is the flex part of the Toda that can be replaced, maybe they did a bad job replacing the flex...

Some aftermarket setups do scrape on speed bumps. Stiffer exhaust hangers can help, as above also check the flexi in the manifold.

Any pictures?

You are lowered so I wouldn't be surprised if it happened.

I was on Eibach springs last year and then had a J's 60RS fitted, standard manifold. It then scraped on speedbumps.

My twinloop scraped at the rear on eibach (reverse rake ones). You car a little lower at the back than the front?

No issues since putting mugen showa on though.
