2OTL and dual/dual were excellent systems (I've owned both). It's a shame they stopped producing them.

My guess would be because the Camaro/Firebird was no longer in production and they weren't making that much profit by still manufacturing the products. They saw a new market with other cars, so shifted that way to try and capture some $$$. I know that when I first heard they were making stuff for Mustangs I was like WTF!?!? But I bought a LM1 catback for my GT and it was great.

The system was very heavy though. Big muffer, and lots of stainless.

I was wondeing why I couldn't find this 2OTL exhaust system I heard such great things about for sale anywhere. What kind of setup was it, just a standard catback w/crossflow, or something different? I will probably do something with the exhaust on my car eventually, thinking either Magnaflow catback or an electric cutout.

Dual/dual was far more expensive though.

If you could take some close up picks of the muffler many of us here could tell you which it is, if you want. I know I could tell the difference right away.
