i took a look at mine yesterday . the pipes are 2.5" from the boots it does not seem like it will be an issue.
i already had the charlie chan muffler which sounds decent but the raspy sound it makes with the delete pipes is more porsche sounding. under normal driving it does not seem like it made any difference in power but when i took it for a blast on the highway it gives the car more high end power and the motor revs more freely. i just ran through the gears getting on the highway and i looked down and i was doing 127 mph ! much better than before. seems like i removed one more piece of restriction in the 3.2 motor.

I had the same concerns as you, but after 3+ years in this configuration everything's fine
