This is now really making me wanna get duals! Now my debate is: Should I get true duals made before or after I get a set of long tubes installed?

I would get long tubes first, that way when you do your duals you want have to mess with them again.

Man...that X pipe look great! I f that doesn't look like a pre-fabbed one I don't know what does; are you sure he made that? If he did indeed make it himself can you ask hime how much he wants to make me one so I can have my exhaust shop use it in my dual set-up?

When I get prices I will let you guys know. He has not got back with me on it yet. I love the one big tip. Im the only one with it and its different. Check out the pics in the App/Detail section. You have to see it wit the car on the ground. I think its SICK, everyone else who has seen it thinks its awesome looking. Your the only one that doesnt like it. Everyone one has an opinion though I respect it.

Oh 99Monguse, I'll check on the x pipe for you to. You want 3" or 2.5"? And yes he made it right before my eyes. Took him all of about 20min.

I could make the trip up to Commerce to have my 2.5" under axle duals replaced with over the axle pipes. That is a killer looking kit!

Price update guys!!

Duals run just like mine. 3" from headers through x and muffler and 2.5 after the muffler and over the axle. $495 if you bring your own mufflers. $595 he supplies race bullets or flow master race muffler (1 chamber). $645 he supplies high dollar muffler like magaflow, dynotech etc. Let me know guys. I dont think that is bad pricing at all. Hell, any catback will cost that if not more once you buy your y pipe.

He will make a 2.5" X junction for $50 and a 3" for $60 for those why just wanted a just a junction.

Would be neat if he could just make kits and ship them out. Just leave the exhaust endings alone so that we can all choose which tips we wanna install out back.

Yes, please keep me posted I plan on getting a kit in the near future and with kits like corsa and borla being in the 1000 dollar range, its getting crazy. As mentioned before id be happy with the exact same thing (magnaflow straight thru muffs) and just to have the endings left alone so I can install some corsa clones since I have a WS6.

That does look really nice. I'd like to see a rear shot of the CME you made. I've often thought of what one like that would look like.

Flawless,
Were the aftermarket panhard bars and control arms required to get the clearance necessary?
