Default TSP True Duals installed this evening

Just finished up my TSP true dual installation. Ditched the Magnaflow catback and GOD what a difference!!!!!! The sound is unbelievable.....I listened to soooooo many sound clips to try and decide what to do. Not to discourage anyone from listening to the sound clips but the clips do not even compare to hearing it in person!!!!! Havent went for a ride yet but I will for sure tomorrow. Thanks for all the help and information as usual guys!!!!

Congrats on the duals. I've got that same setup and I love it. The most surprising thing to me was the depth of sound. So deep! It rattles everything in my interior too much though.

Got to love em. I had a guy ask if i had flowmasters, and just smiled, explaining that there are LTs, no cats, and true duals including 18inch bullets. They did a great job!

I forgot to ask.....my true duals came with all band clamps instead of the normal shitty U-bolts, is that something new for TSP because I heard alot of people saying to go out and buy them instead of using the u bolts that come with the setup. just wondering.....

Congrats on your install!!! I love my true duals! I've had them for 3 weeks and STILL can't make myself turn the radio on. The sound is very deep and loud, but because of my vert, i knew it would be. This set up will positively make people STOP tailgating you!
My set came with the ugly u-bolts, so i went to napa and bought band clamps which was money i had earmarked for the tune, but i'm glad i got them. TSP must have changed the set-up or you just got the "deluxe" edition!

The new Rumbler X True Duals systems now include band clamps on all corners

Cool Jason!
Need your u-bolts back?
You guys make a great bolt-on true dual set-up!

The band clamps are WAY better than the Ubolts. I am glad I got them in my setup instead of having to waste money to buy them separate. The whole setup is AWESOME. Anybody who is thinking about this setup......think no more. GET IT.

The TSP setup is 3", correct? Is there a reason why it is that big as opposed to 2.5"? Not trying to dispute, I'm just wondering if I need 3" with bolt ons and a G5X3 or if 2.5" is fine....

I don't know how you guys do it! I'm ready to wear ear plugs when I drive my car. I'm looking for another way to do it. I'm first going to try to ditch the bullets for some magnaflow ovals and go from there.

Anyone that has the TSP Duals, do they still tuck well with an aftermarket torque arm?
Ive got a lanes setup with 12" Flo Pros. I absolutely love it and wouldnt get rid of it, but the drivers side pipe is right under my Spohn torque arm, so it doesnt tuck well now. Im looking for some ways to re-route it if any one has solve that problem yet.

Oh, and Congrats on the duals

Is this the system you are all talking about?

And...
http://www.texas-speed.com/duals.asp

So, the exhaust comes out under the car instead of out the back?

There is a solution to this problem. If you were to pay me, say, a meger $1000, I would be willing to take your car off your hands. I'm just that nice of a guy.

Or, you could send my your 427 with complete exhaust and I would send you a 6-cylinder in return. Again, I'm only making this offer out of the kindness of my heart.

there is no doubt the set up is loud, but it is a kick @ss DEEP loud...and really, it's only loud when you accelerate, when I'm just cruising in mine it is very subtle...I love all the head turns I get with mine!
