Default Gas Tank and Exhaust

Sorry guys, one more exhaust post. After looking under the the car there doesn't seem to be a lot of room where the maganaflow dual system would go around the gas tank. Is there going to be enough clearance around the gas tank? Also will there be clearance issues anywhere else? Just better to be safe than sorry.

I helped my friend install his on his 05 and around the gas tank wasn't really the problem, the tightest spot that was a bit of a pain was around the spare tire.
I am waiting till the spring to do my 06, as my Rousch dealer told me they are coming out with a full dual exhaust system for the V6 then.

I had the magnaflow duals put on mine, and there wasnt too much of a problem. It can be done!

The hardest part was getting the damn pipe out from over the suspension or goes over the axel or w/e .... basically the one that connects to the muffler.. i pretty much cut it to get it out... other than that it was pretty much straightforward

I'm just worried about down the line. I don't want hot exhaust pipes touching or being to close to anything that there not supposed to be.

The factory hot exhaust pipes run just as close to the fuel tank. If you look underneath, you'll see there's a thick plastic shield covering that part of the tank, presumably as heat insulation.
