Default True Duals guys

Answer the following questions:

1. What mufflers are you using?
2. How loud is it? Compared to a catback?
3. How much clearance do you have? State your true dual size (2.25", 2.50", 3", or 3.5").
4. Did you go with an X-pipe or H-pipe?
5. Did your car pick up anything with a cutout or open headers over the true duals?

1. I have the TSP sytem with sweet thunders
2. very loud! cannot even compare it to the stock slp muffler
3. 3" i have pretty good clearence. The only thing i have ever scraped on are huge speed bumps. That is a stock ride height. At the lowest point(off the driver header) i have about 3/4 of a popcan.
4. x-pipe
5. dont know never ran with cut-outs or open headers

1) TSP with spiral flows (link in sig)
2) Very loud, deeper than a y-pipe setup IMO though
3) Full can of coke at the muffler, whatever TSP size is (2.5" i think)
4) X pipe
5) Don't know, never ran with a y-pipe setup, car feels snappy all over the RPM range though

1. What mufflers are you using? Flowmaster single chambers
2. How loud is it? Compared to a catback? Alot louder than the Hooker setup I had before and AS loud as the cutout, just more refined and without rasp
3. How much clearance do you have? State your true dual size (2.25", 2.50", 3", or 3.5"). I am not sure, would have to measure and get back on that one. 3" piping throughout
4. Did you go with an X-pipe or H-pipe? X pipe
5. Did your car pick up anything with a cutout or open headers over the true duals? I went from the ORY and cutout to this and I could feel a gain in the low-mid rpms, the top-end seemed every bit as good, but I don't know if it was better.

1) 18" Sweet Thunder chambered mufflers
2) A notch louder than SLP loudmouth I, but with a perfect rumble to it at every RPM range. Not just noise. (also running stock cam and cats)
3) Zero issues with clearance, about same as stock height. Am going to lower front 1" soon though. 2.5" from mufflers back, 3" in front. Over the axel.
4) H-pipe
5) Tried this with my old Y set-up and gained 1 rwhp with a cut-out. Havnt tried w/true duals.
