thats about what mine is, i personally wouldn't do it cause you will have a lot of heat comin out
do what i did and order a 180 degree bend and make a couple of turn downs just to be safe

Put your hands two feet from your exhaust pipe. Hold them there. How long before it gets hot?????

I am guessing that since there is no way your exhaust is gonna burn your hands from 2 feet away, it won't affect other things that are two feet away either.
