I traded my old magnaflow catback on here for some true duals (from 95_Z28...*******!! he offered to send my system back and stopped responding)...so i get the true duals installed at this one shop by my place...i went home for a bit while they installed it.
Before I left I specifically told them not to weld the system to the headers...and you guessed it...when i came back they had welded them!!!
...anyway the true dual system had such a shitty clearance (I had 1 inch from the ground literally) no money to redo the system so i told the guy to cut them off...he did a shitty job of that too.So I ran open headers for like four months while i saved up (catback and what the shop charged me) but the car pretty much just sat there, must have put no more than like 25 miles on it during that time.
The guy at the shop offered to put some flanges on the headers but i just didnt have enough to get it done...he said if i change my mind i can always bring it back but i plan on keeping this setup for quite a while (i will eventually just replace the headers with some QTPs or AR) and i'll ask him to put flanges on the ypipe.
But yeah...i kinda got screwed over from that jerkoff

Yeah...long story...here it goes:

and i too went the custom true dual route. I had the clearence issues also and i'm not even lowered yet. Said fu(k that and got a Corsa ex. off of a member. Then added a bullet muffler to help with the rasp. I am finally satisfied with my current setup... 4 exhaust's later

That blows, its just plain ignorant that an exhaust shop would even do that! Everytime i have had a custom exhaust made, i am there beside him...being very picky and i too went the custom true dual route. I had the clearence issues also and i'm not even lowered yet. Said fu(k that and got a Corsa ex. off of a member. Then added a bullet muffler to help with the rasp. I am finally satisfied with my current setup... 4 exhaust's later

...for now lol
