Default Bullets off the collector

I was thinking of putting a moroso spiral flow off each collector. How would this work?

I shoved my spiral flows onto my headers to drive the 5 miles to the exhaust guy. It wasn't insanely loud but I sure wouldn't drive it around like that.

I wasnt even going to put any pipe between the bullet and the header. One chambers sound good but will they fit?

When I did my headers, I put my spiral flows directly to the collectors followed by about 20 inches of pipe with turndowns. I had it like that for 2 weeks untill I got the exhaust X pipe. It was so loud my ears would ring after a 40 minute drive. But the sound was absolutley the best sound I've ever heard in my life! It reminds me of the sound off the C6R Lemans car. I dont have any clips but the best way to describe it is very low deep bassy sounding and very loud at wot! And when your at a high RPM it was still deep and bassy not higher pitched. As far as performance goes, it was real torquey down low but sufferd after 4k. That was before a tune though, when I did the X pipe without the tune it was not as torquey but the top end picked up.

loud doesnt mean itll sound good. that looks like its more of a track car. seriously, its going to be almost like open headers. itll be funny to scare people, but i bet youll hate living with it. once again, loud & sounding good are two different things.

Very true, it is my DD

Maybe a Y pipe with 2 cutouts would be better.
