Car just got a new alignment and new R-spec tires, Bridgestone Potenza RE540S.
Ended up with -3.5 camber front -3.1 camber rear, neutral toe front and 0.30 deg total toe in rear.

A few new pics.

Gustaf, is that a step-up 4 inch exhaust on the car? You may have said it in the previous pages but I didn't look.

It's a 4" exhaust, but unlike the "standard" 4" exhausts available this one transitions to 4" directly behind the starter before the wastegate is tied in. Minimum backpressure

Have you guys had them on 951s before with any test results? I am just curious if you have any data.

You can always get more clearance if you go to ovalized pipe.
Better clearance next to a standard round 3" system. Going to 5" out...

hehe yeah ground clearance isn't the best.. it can be seen on the last pic. But that equalls my front lip ground clearance so any bump will hit there first.
This height is perfect, I can actually go over any speed bumps in my area without contact.

that's a really nice system. But ground clearance is overrated for those of us using a front lip. Just take a look at the front pic I posted. As long as that ground clearance is lower than the exhaust then the exhaust clerance is the least of your problems.

I uploaded a high res pic for anyone else that wanted:
