Sorry I dont, its not too loud at idle but it screams at WOT. It's not really even loud while cruising at 65 with 4.11s at 2400 rpm.

Actually using those as jackstands is a good idea, they look very stable. It does just look a bit though but whatever they do look more stable than jackstands.

your rear end is beautiful


is that 2.5 over the axle? my pipes run on the pass side so as to avoid most the brake lines and such


oh, and if i had the $$ to re-do my exhaust again...i would go back to my original oval tubing but get it all tucked up and over axle out my CME


hmmm....i could prolly sell my TDs and have the $ for it

Anyone got a true dual setup with a side exit in front of the rear tires? That's definately what I'm looking for.

Here's another tru dual set up that I have posted various times. I don't know who's car it is, but I've always loved the set up.

After completing our 455 cu. in. LS1 build, (another story) we wanted a 3" Stainless, true dual exhaust system, over the axle, with cats, and X-pipe.

We decided on KOOKS Custom Headers, on Long Island, NY, for the custom installation.
We met with George R at KOOKS and he designed the perfect system for us which included the above plus resonators, twin mufflers and Corsa tips.
The installation was done flawlessly with exceptional weld quality and incredible workmanship. Pictured below are some of the build and install photos.

We would like to thank Mr. Goerge KOOK, George R., George Jr., Larry and Geronimo for the time, effort and hospitality that was given to us while we were at KOOKS.

The sound is exactly what we wanted. The exhaust sound is deep, not raspy and is totally awesome.

If you would like additional pics send PM.

IF you are considering a system such as this, I would strongly recommend contacting George R. at KOOK Custom Headers.
How much did that run? THat system is beautiful!

hey guys, i just put my TSP duals on w/dynomax bullets, and i have about 3 inches max of ground clearence. i know the X is on right cause it clears the TQ arm. we shoved it up all the way when it was on the lift and got it tucked nice and tight, then when we let it down, the suspension loaded and the pipes went back toward the ground......any suggestions?

i put them on myself. im thinking of putting a small angled peice of pipe on before the mufflers. thatway, the X will be down far enough to clear the TQ arm but it will point the mufflers up enough to gain ground clearence.
