Default TD's finished out the back...must have!!

I finally finished the duals out the back and had mandrel bends installed in the front section. Then there are flanges on the rear section so I can unbolt the crush bent sections at the track. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the results. It is so much quieter inside the car. I can hear the radio, talk to my passenger at a normal volume and there are no more rattles. I'll be honest, I do miss the bark that the dumps gave it, but it still sounds badass at normal cruising and WOT. I got great clearance all around and the only issue I am having is a little rubbing behind the header. It bangs ar WOT, but I will wrap some heater hose around it and eventually get Poly motor mounts. All in all, well worth the money. It was $323.00 from front to back. I already had the mufflers and H-pipe. If you can't stand the interior noises with dumps.....do this! When I want to be obnoxious, all I have to do is unbolt the back sections. Check out the pics.....

Excellent. Now you can have dumps when you want them. I am going to look into that.

I have the Bilstein Level II which is 1/2" lower than stock. The original duals were so much lower than this and I rarely rubbed. I would drop it another 1" or so without any qualms about rubbing. The lowest point is the flanges on the headers.
