True Duals question... Ok I have searched and read and visited the Texas Speed & Performance site... I saw there 3" TD set up for $419 with free shipping, X-pipe and 18" bullet mufflers... so from there I know I have to add headers and tips? What about cats? I also would like it to go over the axle, if I want to do that am I better off just getting something completely custom? Ground clearance is already an issue with the regular stock exhaust, its kinda hilly at some places going in and out of strip malls. Also if I get the TSP TD's I have to pay someone to fab on the rest to the back right? Thanks in advance...

ONCE AGAIN!!
Search... Look farther down this page.. There are MANY posts about TDs that answer everyone of the questions that you just posted...
If you go with the TSP setup.. You WILL need LTs. You don't need to purchase tips for this setup. It dumps at the axle.
If you want a setup to exit the rear, you're better off just having an exhaust shop do all of the fabrication for you. BIG $$$$ to have that done.
If you're having clearance issues now, TDs aren't going to make them any better for you.
Good Luck.

Getting a set-up that dumps over the axel will be more expensive since to fit two pipes over it, you have to have a pretty good bend.
I believe ls1speed.com sells a true duel over the axel set-up though.

from what your describing you dont want the TSP duals. the TSP dual setup is for people who want a direct bolt in w/o any modifications. you dont have to fab up anything, they took the guess work out of everything.
if you want over the axel duals i suggest you get in touch with an exhaust shop who has done that kind of work on an fbody, and go over a plan on how you want it fabbed up.

tsp's are great for an exle dump. much cheaper to get that part fabbed if you're gonna get it extended anyhow, cuz extending it out the back(from the dumped point) is going to run you more then the TSP setup will alone. ls1speed.com charges like $1100 for out the rear true duals, fully custom built.
and Venom was right. had you searched, all your questions are answered somewhere else already. i know for a fact the answers are out there. i've answered half of them myself personally.

TSP duals + needed ground clearance = not a good idea
Believe me. I don't care what they say, the exhaust hangs low. I have about 3 1/2 inches of clearance. You might want to go 2.5 inch tubing, you'll gain a little clearance over the 3 inch.
