i had it for a while a few years ago... had a dynomax bullet muffler on it... it was really loud, but i liked it.

kinda sounded like a NASCAR with it angled out the side of the car

i had hooker LTs, ORY, and the 26"(?) dynomax bullet... i welded a turn down/out on it so it pointed towards the side of the car, and had very little to no rasp. only had some drone around 1800-2000 rpm

i would think you would get more power, and better sound, out of the TD's you have on there

thats the idea im going with, but im also puting another bullet after the axle. i want just a single exhaust. i just dont know if it will be quieter with a seccond bullet after the axle. btw im using moroso sprial flows.

I was gonna do this but figured it would be too loud. I had true duals, got rid of them because since they were dumped before the axle, they droned and had a lot of interior noise. Now I have the QTP ypipe and the magnaflow catback.

Anyone have vid clips of a ypipe dumped?

My TD's don't have a cross over and hang about 3 inches if not closer to the ground, I need to do something for exhaust, and TD's on these car's just isn't worth it unless you wanna pay for a really nice custom over the axle set up with nice mufflers, which isn't in my budget...

Its Loud.. sounds great with stock manifolds/cats and decent with LT's and cats.. I will say from first hand experience though LT's and ORY with that setup sounds like *** because it will have tons of rasp or at least it did on my car. since then I made my own 2.5" td setup and have plenty of clearance and they sound a hell of a lot better than any y-pipe setup I've heard.
