True duals on kooks 1 7/8 headers

I'm on the fence right now on TD's. My SS is only lowered 1 inch at this point. I've been wanting to go true duals for some time but I am concerned about clearance. I'm looking for a dumped set up. I have no interest in running it all the way back to the bumper.

Would I be better off buying mufflers and having a TD set up made at a shop? If not what would yall recommend?

Thanks!

Are you in Texas? I'd imagine shipping would be quite expensive if not.

Thanks

I'm currently a full time student at Baylor Univ. in Waco, Texas. I will be heading back to Houston possibly in 2 weeks. I believe that's Halloween weekend? If not, i'm not sure we could arrange a meet without it being an inconvenience to you.

GMMG exhaust or chambered exhaust (powersticks) can provide that tone also not just duals. Espeically after you add the LT's and a cam. Hell my car has cats on it and everyone starts looking. So you don't have to have duals to be loud. I've had duals before and I can tell you with my setup now I have a better tone and no clearance issues and can drive like normal no cutting angles and all the other work with dual. haha
