im considering a 4" square section of plywood mounted behind the collector. The plywood will be affixed to the floorboard with some angle iron brackets on the top half and some big springs mounted to the lower section that will stretch to the front bumper brackets.
I'll just drill a hole in the center of the plywood for exhaust to escape; starting with a 1" bore and maybe increasing it to 2". That will satisfy the DB requirements that will be next and I will have a cheap way of slowing my car down and avoiding the AHFS.
