True Duals - one muffler + one resonator?
Hey guys,
Have a 90 Iroc with and LSx/T56 swap. Long tubes, x-pipe and true duals, but I just don't like the sound of bullet-style mufflers/resonators. I need that chamber sound, but I can't run two mufflers. Lowered, T56 cross member, Spohn Torq arm. Just no room
Can I run one Flowmaster 40 in the stock location for the drivers side and a resonator on the passenger side?
Does that difference in back-pressure matter and will the x-pipe help? Should I add an H over the axle to connect the two sides?
Thanks
Asim

The newer mustangs (2005 and up) have the mufflers just before the rear bumper and sound good. Why not just throw some 2 chamber flowmasters in that spot. I have a 98 TA and was gonna run true duals on that with the same set up. True 2in duals with 2 flow masters. If you go that route, let me know what you think. You def gotta have an x pipe or h pipe in there to balance out the exhaust flow.

If I could do 2 small chamber mufflers I would, but the passenger side of the Iroc has next to no room in-between the spare tire well and the trunk.
I got the idea of using one muffler because my 95 had a Borla cat-back and I noticed that with the plate off, the passenger side was basically a pass-through and only the drivers side goes through the muffler.

I have seen powerstick style before but didn't know they were making a comeback! The good thing about them would be that there would be no fiberglass to burn out for using glasspacks when adding them to an existing loud exhaust system (like mine) that needs just a little more sound reduction to lower the wife & neighbor complaints
I though this guy made a good video describing them, I'm looking into them.
Now I just got to find some in 4" for the car and 5" for the diesel
