Default Video Of True Duals on stock LT1

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmQwwM7_1Hs

Here is a video I have been trying to get for the longest time just haven't had the time to get over to my buddies. Everyone says oh with the LT and True duals its gonna be loud if you go on my other video with the flowmaster its even louder!! Under a load it sounds a lot meaner but thats how it goes lol.

( and no i didn't just go out there start it up and rev her to the 6300 rev limiter lol)

True duals can be loud, all depending upon muffler choice and placement.

Most people dont do true duals because a mass majoirty of the time there is no real point. Many times TD's sacrifice a lot of ground clearance, which obviously isnt ideal for a street car.

Also, the "single" factory style exhaust in 3 or 4 inch can handle tons of power(over 500hp, I believe) before it actually becomes a restricition.

Yeah i posted the gains on here I think from the manifolds to the LT's and the BBK shorties look like a waste of time to me the way they are designed but hey thats why the designers get the big bucks
