Default Dual exhaust

So I started tearing my stock exhaust off to do headers an true duals etc... I have the Magnaflow hf cats... Should I put a pipe between the header and cat or put it right on the header? Also I have a 99 ta and I'm just wonderig if there is room to run a 3" pipe over the drivers side? I'm wondering how much is loaded on the upper phb

personally I wouldnt run the cats unless you need them for emissions test. As for 3in over the axle the answer is yes. With stock panhard and support you could run a single 3in or if you were asking about dual 3in over the axle the answer is still yes but you will need a aftermarket panhard with a relocation kit to fit the duals threw there

It just dawned on me you said "drivers side". So Im gonna say you could probably do it I think Ive seen some posts about it but your gonna have to relocate and move a bunch of stuff to do it all your fuel lines and stuff run over the drivers side of the rear axle. All the info above is for running the duals over the passanger side of the axle

Thank you for your service

Yeah if your gonna be moving from base to base and have to deal with different emission laws run the cats Id just mount them of the end of your header. And if your wanting to run duals the easiest way to do it is gonna be over the passanger side of the axle
