Cheap Dual Setup I just bought a set a pacesetter lt's and am looking to run a true dual setup. I was looking at the tsp rumbler, but would rather spend the money on other upgrades for my car.
Anyways I am thinking about running dynomax bullets straight off the headers with a 14" turndown off the bullets. Has Anyone on here done a setup like this before? any problems this might cause like fitment issues or anything?

Duals with no crossover will most likely sound like an old straight-piped truck. And I'm pretty sure that no one really likes that sound. lol. Just pick up a universal x-pipe kit from Summit and take it to an exhaust shop to have them fab it up. Shouldn't cost too much, and you'll like the way it sounds a lot better. lol

when you consider material costs, fabrication, and other misc things...the cost of the TSP Rumbler X is not a bad setup.
these cars have low ground clearance, so it takes more than slapping a universal setup on it, or a couple bullets.
cheapest setup i can think of would be to buy an orp for your header brand, generally they have alot of the "fitment" issues around the collectors figured out. then cut the merge off and have a couple ~90deg bends welded on, a parallel in/out xpipe, and then some mufflers (your choice).

Thanks I got it. Point was on bigger/heavier items people dont want to ship. Thats why with locations in avatars someone local might spot you wanting/needing something and can help you out. You'd be surprised the great deals I got and people I have met bc someone noticed my location.
