true duals: TSP vs Lane's I've tried the search button multiple times now, and it's not working. I just ordered Pacesetter LT's, and I'm gonna be getting true duals pretty soon, and I'm absolutely torn between TSP's setup and Lane's. I've decided to go 3" as I'll be getting a cam and heads in the not too distant future. I also know Lane uses the Dr. Gas X pipe and TSP just uses something like what you'd get from Jegs. My main concern with the 2 setups is ground clearance and banging. Which setup has the best clearance and tends to fit the best? I'd like to save some $ with the TSP, but with Lane's being a custom built, I tend to think I'll have better fitment and would be willing to spend the extra to get the best clearance I can. Pricing for TSP is $420 shipped, and Lane's is $495 plus shipping. thanks for the help

I have a lanes 3" TD and love them fit great and a lot of ground clearance. I would go through lane again in a heartbeat. Great product and customer service 
But ether way the 3" duals simply sound bad ***

yea the main difference between the two is the X pipe, TSP makes their own and Lane uses the Dr. Gas X, I would go with Lane's, his has the best ground clearance and the system all around is just the best IMO...

I have TSP's and the fitment and quality is great, I have stock ride highth but the system tucked up nicely and is not a problem driving around. I have no banging issues, no problems at all. They make a great product and are worth the money. I have heard great things about Lane's, but TSP makes as good a system in my opinion and for a less $$. Kind of hard to improve that kind of exhaust. Both are 3" with an X pipe, both are quality, both are proven pieces, who do you want to give your money to is the only issue I see.

I just installed Lane's duals this weekend. I drove 5 hours for the install and would recommend them to anyone looking for duals. The work is exceptional and the ground clearance is wonderful, I have as much clearance as my ORY was before. again HIGHLY recommend Lane's for duals.

unless your driving up to texas to have the lanes fitted custom on your car i'd opt for the TSP. if your withing driving distance i'd say lanes in a heartbeat. i've got TSP and wasnt to impresssed with the quality and you've got to spend alot of time to get the bests clearance.

Thanks for the good words guys.
Ours does cost a bit more, because of the Dr Gas X we use, and it's a fully welded system made for each application.
Both have their good points.

I had Lanes on my car for awhile and the fit was great and so was ground clearance. The only reason i took them off was the drone. But you will have that with all the duals if you have the dynomax bullets. After i took them off and went back to my borla..... i was shocked at the diffference. As soon as i rolled out and smacked it i knew i had messed up. I could feel a power loss on the bottom end. So that is why im going back with the duals!! I would recomend the Lanes as well.

Lane does great work, I've seen some of the setups he's built to be shipped out. They look just like the setups he puts on cars....so unless you have a radical setup his should fit REALLY well.

I will say it again, Lanes duals fit really well, you can't see my from the rear unless you are damn near on the ground looking under the car. My car is also quite low and I haven't hit them yet and have driven on some BAD roads. You won't regret getting them.
