I've always heard it's best to put the mufflers as far back in the exhaust system as possible..which is where all the car manufacturers put them so I guess it's true..prob meaning chambered mufflers though...

depending on the power output of the car....a ypipe and catback is more restrictive.
especially when you consider all the exhuast is going through ONE muffler as compared to TWO on a true duals setup.
for dealing with noise, interior resonance, and ground clearance...do an X or H pipe and then the mufflers.

further back the better The exhaust gasses cool as they go back so there is more power to be had as there is less restriction till later. Whether it is a very measureable amount I couldn't say. Plus , as the others said, better ground clearance & placement.
