Texas-Speed.com is the only one I know of. Every shop I have been to says their system is a CUSTOM system (meaning every car is different somehow?) so they charge an arm and a leg for true duals.

Texas speed has a great mail order true dual setup, with a few different muffler choices. This setup makes awsome power. I ran a 13.1 @ 112 mph on this setup. wud have been well into the 12's if not for street tires and a 2.47 60' time only problem with it is staight from texas speed it hangs a little low. may have to take a couple peices in to a muffler shop and get them bent a little. overall great set up and with the dynomax bullets or the sweet thunders it sounds wicked

that guy has been welding with a coat hanger for a long *** time, or he wouldnt be in business.

Take it to him, it should cost around $450-$500 from headers to tips.

Mine was $475 at a shop.

Remember, the BEST fit MUST be a custom system.

I would go with a no. I'm not 100% sold on the quality of the TD's from TSP. I prefer a custom fit to the car.

I think Bassani makes a 2.5" system

tsp has a really good reputation on this site and plenty of folks are running them .
with that being said , you would be suprised what a redneck can do with a welder . around here in birmingham you can get the hotside of dual turbos done up for $200 out the back .

I like my TSP system.

Then again, I have a mechanic's pit so I can easily adjust it for fitment/clearance issues......

I am running the TSP system, if you invert your hard brake line bracket (do a search), you can tuck them up pretty good. My only tips is to load the rear suspension when you install the mufflers, if you're doing it on a lift a trans jack under the pumpkin works (lower the lift SLOWLY onto the jack, much easier than cranking on that bitch till the wheels are tucked into the fenders like they are on the ground). If you're doing it on your back just put the jack stands under the rear lower control arms.

In the TS setup, of the Sweet Thunder, Moroso Spiral, or Dyomax Bullets, which ones are the quietest?

Yes they do and I have it on my 00' SS. It sounds great and is TOP NOTCH quality, they make a stainless kit or the same thing in aluminized.

It bolts up to your stock cats (or can easily mod to long tubes), runs into an X-pipe and dual 2.5" follow the same route as your stock pipes to the Dual in dual out muffler.

www.notasponsor.com has the kit. I paid 795.00 for the SS version, but I have a wholesale account with them- I dont think you'll pay that much more.

if you want a perfect fit....take it to a shop.

TSP is good but not perfect. Any competent exhaust shop can improve your ground clearance and fit over the TSP system(which i have)

I'll be taking mine to LMR next week to have some problems corrected:
I drag my driverside intermediate pipe constantly so it's always leaking right behind the O2 sensor.

Keep in mind, we barley have any muffler shops open here since Katrina much less a "good" muffler shop. In the suburb town where I live, we have a Midas and a mom and pop, the midas just does repair, brakes, etc and the mom and pop shop is flooded with the kids getting the coffee cans welded on... so not much to choose from.

Performance peddler's website is no longer working, anyone have a phone number?

I had a buddy and me do my duals in his shop, cost me like 75 bucks in material. Came out much better than TSP's I think. 2.5" merge collectors off the headers, 2.5" x pipe, dynomax race bullets dumped at the axle. Looks amazing, have no ground clearance issues at all. It's too quiet for me though, I miss my open headers =[

PM me and I will give you some information about a shop in Baton Rouge that can hook you up with what you want.

i have the bassani tru-duals on both of my cars in stainless steel. had no fitment issues at all. it's made to fit 00-02 with factory manifolds and cats, but can be modified to fit with headers.

I forgot there's no spray painting on this side of the Berlin wall.

But I did just read your rules on this, so in the future I'll avoid trying to help someone out due to fear of being "restricted" myself....
