Default True duals with bmr xtreme torque arm

What would I lose doing headers to bullet mufflers with turn downs before the torque arm crossmember? I would like to do an x but I don't see how it would work with out dropping it below the ta crossmember. Has anyone done duals with this setup. I can post some pics of the torque arm mount if it would help.

they will be loud .... and im not real sure about the back pressure... back pressure and scavenging would be my only concern.... id like to have true duals with mine but i just dont think it would work well...

but in your case (me too) i hope we could custom build an exhaust

if any one has any pics of this please post

Well I guess I'll start out with just the mufflers no h or x and go from there.

I've done it. it's damn loud, but a decent amount quieter than open headers. I did a custom 3" y into 4" dumped before the axle. I need to get some pics up. I haven't seen anyone with the setup I have. I also have dumps 16" straight off the collectors to go open headers.

I haven't dyno'd or ran with my current exhaust setup, besides running it open headers. with the bullets off the collectors I didn't lose much if anything at the track
