Default Pacesetter true duals?

Few questions, found a guy locally selling a true dual set up that dumps right before the axle, he said its a Pacesetter, but I cant find the Pacesetter true dual anywhere else on the internet, did Pacesetter even make a true dual set up? I couldnt find it on the Pacesetter website. Also, right now im running Pacesetter LT's, O/R Y pipe, LM 1 catback, would I even see much hp gain with the true duals?

It's probably some generic weld together true dual kit that he made fit the car.

They've never made a true dual system for these cars. Can you post a picture of the system? Alot of guys run the Texas speed true duals with the Pacesetter headers for a nice aggressive, budget oriented combo. Pictures would help to tell if it's a production system like ours or something thrown together in a driveway.

Here is his add with a picture in it. I have been emailing him back an forth, and asked him what brand it was, he said Pacesetter. Thought it was a pretty good deal if they are good quality true duals.

Looks very similar, but it's hard to say with that picture.

Is there any way to tell if its the Texas Speed set up? He said he'd sell it to me for 150 bucks, so if its the Texas Speed, Im buying it.

Hell as long as it is in good shape I would buy it. IMO But from when I had my TSP True dual system it looked exactly like that but like they say it's hard to confirm. I would go ahead and get it cause I personally thing it's the TSP system but I'm not expert by any means but it looks like what I got a few years back from TSP.

If you can get any closer-up pics, we could make a better call!

BTW i love them. Although they are pretty loud. Looks like you have a 6 speed. That helps, cause when i spot the police or dont want to be noticed, i can upshift or push in the clutch for a second to quite it down.

If i'm just cruising around normally and shifting low in the rpms they arent bad at all, but i dont know if i would like them on an automatic, unless i lived out in the country.
