    I've read a couple times that with some dp's and headers people need to flip the sway bar so it doesn't hit? Who has had to do that and what are the specifics with your car and parts? Also, who HAS done dp's or headers and did NOT need to do any modding of surrounding parts for them to fit? I'm doing a 3" dp tomorrow and want to know what to expect.

    Thanks!

    my ZZP DP didnt hit sway bar... but my speed daddy headers sway bar did.... caused up to 8* of false knock. its pretty simple.. drop rear of sub frame... unbolt sway bar... flip it and stick it back in.

    Hmm. This DP is a ZZP as well. So chances are it won't hit?
