Default TSP true dual, how do they fit?

Okay so I'm going to do another camaro and i'm think if TSP Headers and true duals I know how the headers fit but does anyone know of how low the x pipe hangs? I had a custom x pipe with slp headers and hated how low they hung.
Pictures will help if anyone has any.
Thanks...

I'm thinking of doing the same idea...TSP true duals with an X pipe, but I'm concerned with how low it's gona hang. I'm not sure about your Camaro, but the frame is about 7 inches off the ground in my TA, and the piping is 3 inches so I think its gona be kinda low. I'm not too sure what other people have done though. Since you can't extend the pipes past the rear axle, I want to curve the pipes and dump the exhaust gas in front of the rear tires.

It fits well, I've had mine on the car for over 4 years w/o a complaint. I got tired of ill-fitting y-pipes banging the floor of my car. The duals were one of the best investments I ever made.

Anyone running w/o cats and TSP duals? I am curious how it sounds. My car is not a DD so a lot of sound is not the issue, just wondering about rasp.

More often than not, folks running our true duals are running without cats due to the true duals being designed to slip right onto the end of the LT headers. I've seen a few guys who modified theirs and added a couple high flow cats right after the collector of the LT, and it shouldn't be too huge a deal to get done!!

Yeah I've had true duals on both of my other cars it was the same exhaust but I hated how low they were and I'm going to get the panhard relocation to make the exhaust go all the way out to the back the tips used to hit everywhere is was embarassing in parking lots going over speed bumps cuz you would just hear a nasty scraping noise across the mufflers all the to the tips. That was more on my last one cuz I had the eibach pro springs.

Thanks that helps I haven't really been able to find any pictures and I them. The ones I had before were low... Like really low maybe 3 inches off the ground it was horrible but I didn't want to pay $400-$500 just to tuck the exhaust up a little bit but new car so new exhaust!

Excellent, thanks Matt! I currently have SLP tuned length off road LTs with their high flow cats that are hollowed out (visual inspection reasons) and was looking to add your true duals with an x pipe. I may also consider changing headers as the SLPs hang quite low....but it may have to wait a year. Was thinking of changing to Kooks or any other leading LT for 4th gens

gearhead, do you have any more pictures of your set up? What kind of headers do you run? I have pacesetter LT's, custom H and bullets and at about the lowest point I have about 4" above the ground...

The mufflers had to be kept away from the fuel lines 1.5", though they are that close to the fuel lines and the body, so I don't get how you tucked them up any higher..?
