Idea for exhaust
I have been giving alot of thought about an exhaust setup, and now I think I know what I want to do. I'm thinking of getting the TSP 1 7/8 long tubes (for when I spray, head/cam the car later down thr road), texas rumbler true duals, and having a local fab shop finish the duels out the back of the car. I am also thinking of running dual e-cutouts after the x pipe. Is there enough room with the x-pipe and going to the bullets to install the cutouts? Is there also a place that sells 3" or 3 1/2" single exhaust tips, slant cut? Ideas and opinions are appriciated. Thanks

Its your money, do what you want. Food for thought.
Someone I know had cutouts installed before the x on his TSP Rumbler duals and lost 3hp and 4lb/ft with them open vs. closed. His mods were :
01 WS6
AFR 205
Custom 245/249 cam
Pulley
Longtubes
TSP Duals with dual cutouts
Custom tune

Cutouts would be right after the x, right before the mufflers. I would have the fab shop fix it up and get it how I have envisioned. But like I said, I was just looking for opinions.
EDIT::::: I don't know what I was thinking when I was at work when I first made this.......I don't want an x pipe. I meant custom h pipe set up. I was looking at the rumblers and got confused. H pipe set up if funds allow it. Thanks for added input.

i could be totally wrong but ive alway heard that on the stock 346 bottom end, that 1 7/8 headers were too much, and that 1 3/4 were the better choice, but like i said i could be way off! anybody know?

Yea, H pipes sound mad sexy. That's why I want it, even if dynos say X's are worth more power. But yea....H pipe, dual cut-outs, then to bullets or stingers or something.
And regarding primary size....yea, 1 3/4 is better, but once running H/C/I, or spray, or a combination of the both, the 1 7/8 help our engines breath a tad better. Plus if I want to do a 408 later on, I got the headers already, and wont have to spend another 5-900 dollars.

1 7/8 headers and bullets and you want it to be louder? I had bullets dumped with my old setup with an x pipe and it was too loud for my taste. I also had to drive my car about 25 miles with open headers and it sounded horrible IMO but it did make a car pull right off the road when I came up behind him at WOT
Do what you want though, but I'm ready for something a little tamer, hopefully the magnaflow setup I'm switching to will sound and be a little quieter
