Default dump or run them out the back

Ok so i was planning on doing td's under the axle. But im wondering if i should just dump them or run them out the back? I have 3in. tubing, electric cutouts, xpipe, and dynomax bullets

Why not run them out the back with the electric cutouts right after the headers? Since you have all the materials you might as well.

Agreed^^ BUT.... i have a camaro with TD and dumped. kinda makes your eyes burn a little if you set and idle or are in heavy traffic for a while. But i can live with it for the sound it has.

There are goods and bads with every choice just depends what you can deal with

i guess it also depends on where you live. some state inspection requires the exhaust to exit the car either the sides or out the back. and when i say out the sides it has to be beyond the drivers/passengers door. good luck if it doesnt matter where you live, i say dump it

I say out the back. With the 3 inch pipe you won't lose any hp over being dumped. It will be a little quieter if you ever want it to be and all the rasp from dumps will be gone and besides if you want it loud and proud just open the cutout. I have yet to hear a fbody with dumps sound better than my tds out the back both on stock cam of course. Those with dumps agree with me also. its my opinion so take it FWIW

I say run them out the back. The hp difference of dumping them or running out the back will be very minimal. You won't feel the difference. The sound will be quieter, but it won't be right under you. Plus the T/A bumper has the exhaust spots and it looks tacky not having the spots filled with some nice corsa tips. You will be pleased with either way though.

Run em all the way out cuz u sd u have cutouts. Won't really effect the performance especially being that u will prole have the cut outs open when u run.
