Borla XR1 True Duals W/Corsa Clones I finally had some 2.5" over the axel true duals done. Thanks to Kev98ta for answering my questions. I basically had mine modeled after his. Also, gotta give a big thumbs up to Ken and Randy at GT Muffler here in KC, MO (Parkville). Alot of the other muffler shops said there is no way to run true duals on our cars. I even brought in pics, and the other shops still said it was impossible! 
When I brought it to GT, I showed them my pics, they looked under my car, and then said we're up for the challenge. If you're searching for a muffler shop, be sure to bring in pics so you can show them what you want and that it can be done.
I previously had a Hooker catback. I really liked it, but I wanted to try a change. So far I really like the duals. The XR1's are awesome! Pretty tame at idle, but really come to life at WOT. There is droning at 2k rpms, but that is to be expected with t/d's and an A4. I may go back to get a few things tweaked, but overall I'm very happy with the setup.

Yeah I saw the left side was too far left when I took the pic, but I wanted to get the car back and drive it around. I'll have them fix it when I get a chance to go back.
I'll post clips hopefully on Sunday when I have a little more free time. We're supposed to get rain and snow showers through Sat, but Sun is supposed to be nice.
Nvious, it's definitely not cheap. Just the XR1's and Magnaflow 2.5" XPipe ran me $320 from Jegs. Then factor in the pipes and several hrs labor. The pipes are 2.5". After it goes over the axel, it is 3", which helps since these XR1's are 3" inlet/outlet.
Detox, yours sounds badass! After hearing your exhaust, that also played a factor in me going with the XR1's. I'm still running my Random Tech cats, so it may not be quite as loud, but it is still plenty loud for me.
