X pipe questions Im plannin on gettin an x pipe setup for my 98 A4 trans am and plan on ordering the Dr. Gas 3" x pipe, but do I order the Complete kit?? and they'll be hooked up to either some pacesetter long tube headers or jet hot headers and will I need to order anything else other then mufflers and the x pipe and headers to complete and let my exhaust shop do the rest?
Also what kind of mufflers should I get....Im looking to have a LOUD setup because this isnt goin to be my daily driver just a weekend warrior around town and occasionaly at the track.

Re: X pipe questions Do u know where I can get any sound clips from the bullets or ultra flows?
Also im kinda iffy about havin my exhaust shop doin it, they're really good but they've never put a true dual setup on a LS1 from what they said. They said ill have a real bad clearance issue and mounting issues, what should I tell them? Will all my fuel lines and other stuff be ok where they're at?
thanks for the responses

Re: X pipe questions That looks great but what do you do about the tunnel brace? Isn't it dangerous to be driving without it?

Verdad Gallardo Re: X pipe questions Its in a box in my garage. In our local club there are at least 5 people running duals, and I am 99% sure that the tunnel braces are off. My subframes should go on shortly.

Re: X pipe questions I drove without my tunnel brace for months as well, I don't think it can hurt you, I though it was there as a cheap way for gm to keep the driveshaft from dropping if the UV joint broke. You could always get a driveshaft loop and really have no worries.
