MR Downpipe clearance?

I had my mind set on the GarageHRS DP, and it was confirmed that it will not clear the ACD.

Who is running a 3" DP on an IX MR and what type? Clearance issues?

I am actually a big fan of Tanabe, I had there DP on my STi. Great product. The Tanabe is not 3" though.

I waiting on Helix V2 for my IX. I read it clears fine. But it's freaking 3 weeks backordered and the vendor is lacking on status!

also, I agree Tanabe 70mm clears w/ flying color w/ 1/2" or more clearance all around! BTW, I'm selling my Tanabe since my car was originally tuned w/ my old 3" dp while touching the ACD.

Works 76mm with ceramic coating. Clears perfect, fit was awesome, and its cool to the touch even after hard driving. Nice if you ask me, since there have been instances of heating up the 6spd and shearing 4th gear

For the record, there is no difference between a GSR or MR 6sp clearances.

^ Good catch Scott, slipped right past me. They both have ACD, so technically anything that fits well on an 05 will fit fine on an 06.
