that's a nice traction bar, whether it will help it clear or not, i dont really know i dont mess with the DAs and EFs. as far as ur exhaust goes tho, i noticed you were speaking of getting a flowmaster, please don't there is no packing in there, its just a chambered/baffled muffler and is so loud on a honda. i had the edelbrock sdt on mine for a little bit lol it sounded like a k series race cars all the time. what i would suggest would be to go with a 2.5" exhaust, i think the only reason why they use 60mm piping in japan and europe is because it is like a standard piping size there. by not going 2.5" you would be building an exhaust that will limit you if you may want to make more power later, plus, there's not really any benefit to having such small piping. make sure you use mandrel bends. i'm pretty good with building exhaust systems as i have built many, if you have any other questions and stuff you can just pm me...
