Default Should I keep it or not!

I bought my camaro this last spring from a friend who was going through some hard times. It has the SLP 2OTL exhaust and about 2 month ago I put pacesetter longtubes w/ORY. I like it but I'm just not a big fan on the dual side pipes. I know this system flows well and I know they dont make it anymore but would it be a sin if I bought some mendrel bends and welded up duals? Is this system sought after enough to ask around?

The 2 ways I'm leading towards
-cut it up, run dual out the back and put E-cutouts after headers
-sell it and run true dual with X-pipe and Powersticks over the axle no cutouts

Need some opinions thanks


Here are some videos from the weekend.

Car sounds good, but I've never been a fan of single-side outlet exhaust. I'd sell it and fab some true duals.

Yeah, I'm with this guy ^^^^. It sounds really good as it is, but I think I would go with this option

-cut it up, run dual out the back and put E-cutouts after headers

first of all this is one of the best flowing exhaust came on factory cars. 2nd duals muffler with cut out after y pipe will give u same gain as the 2otl (as i heard). do you want to change it for looks mainly? well if i were u id weld faker tips and keep it!
