You'll need pipe....I went mandrel bent to the mufflers and crush bent behind. You'll need a crossover pipe (H or X-pipe). This is not mandatory but helps scavenge exhaust and equalizes the pressure. An H-pipe generally sounds better and a X-pipe supposedly generates more power (although this has been disproved via a dyno graph from a Mustang GT that was floating around this site somewhere). You'll also need tips. I guess you are going to have this made at a reputable shop? If so, they should have everything you need with the exception of the crossover and tips (depending on what kind you want). Search for crossover pipe manufacturers. (Dr. Gas X, Flowmaster H, etc.) You'll also need to decide if you want 2.5" (good for at least 600 bhp) or 3" exhaust. Opinions vary, but 2.5" is more than sufficient for most people's needs.

I wonder what one of those larger single chamber single in/dual out would sound in place of the stock muffler. Would probably flow a lot better than the 80 series catback. Would just need one of the pipes bent weird kinda like in the gmmg setup.
