Default FLP custom true duals

Well, I just installed some QTP headers and had Finish Line Performance custom fabricate 2.5" true duals over the axle and out the back. Thought I would share some pictures.

The system is 100% stainless steel and mandrel bent. I used magnaflow 3" cats (94109) and magnaflow bullet mufllers. Reused my dual/dual tips from the loudmouth system I had before. Band clamps connect the system to the header collecter and the system uses an X type crossover.

The biggest problem FLP ran into was getting aroung the 3-point SLP subframe connecters on the drivers side. I believe it required an 80 degree bend.

It sounds mean at WOT but docile when cruising. Very expensive system ($1400), but worth it.

Here are some pics. Enjoy!

Thanks everyone. Well, I asked for an X pipe set up and thats how they fabbed up the junction. Will this X-type crossover flow as well as a true X-pipe or H-pipe?

I'll try to get some sound clips up

Will this system flow well without a true X-pipe? Like fromDr. Gas or magnaflow for example.

I'd think that yours would work more like an H-pipe, not really an X-pipe as far as i can see. For $1400 I might ask FLP if it matters or not, but for that money I would of made sure it was something like a Dr. Gas X-pipe, not the standard one, but the one they make that is more straight in and out for true duals out the back like yours. Looks nice otherwise though.
