Default True Duals

Right now I have stock exhaust manifolds, stock Ypipe and a Magnaflow cat-back...

I am upgrading to Pacesetter LTs and I was wondering if it's worth going to a true dual setup with a Xpipe?

if there is a Dual setup that I can purchase or will it need to be custom?

Thanks,

Rob

I just looked in the TSP website. It only lists a true dual setup for LS1 cars. Will it fit LT1 cars?

Yep, sure will. Just dont order it directly off the website. Call them and tell them LT1 car, Pacesetter longtubes, etc. And they will set it up correctly for you.

I actually changed my header selection, I have purchased Coated Hooker LTs, does anyone know if the LT1 true duals are less or more than the LS1 product?

Also, are there any sound clips?

Just like SweetRed95ta said, I believe they are the same no matter what motor/header setup.

About sound clips, do a search on here subject true duals. In one of those there was a link posted to a site that had a decent library and included the TSP setup.

I think its lt1engine.com though so try that before doing the crap work of searching.

I love my true duals. So much fun. Only thing I don't like is the ground clearance (lack of it). I know there are people on here with plenty of clearance, and would love to know how they did it. Pics would be great, btw. Just be ready to deal with some extra noise with these. Cops love to follow me. But its still worth it.

TDs in sig, clearance is great, just dont drive like a maniac and be wary of road bumps and you are good to go. Spiral Flows

In my opinion custom x-pipes are better and with a good exaust man it is possible.
