My eyes burn enough from the ory and borla cb so I wouldnt want dumped duals. Originally I was going to do them but decided against them for that reason and also I wanted a catted Y (gutted) to pass visual emissions if needed.
Also after the stall I cant imagine tds on the street going past cops.

I hear all the talk about how loud true duals are over the cat back system ,but how much power gained from a catback to true duals , (Not trying to hijack just putting this question out for the other who wanna know too).

True d's or a catback is alot of money for no real power. a cutout is low cost and you can open or close it when ever you want. They gain as much or in my cars case 30hp when open. way more then a cat back or true d's will gain. get a cutout and spend the saved cash on something extra.

I have had Longtubes/ORY/LMI and Longtubes/X-Pipe/Dumps. The overall volume is not much different. The quality of the sound is where all the difference is. A nice dual system has a much cleaner sounds. Muffler choice is where you can adjust your tone and volume. Most duals are loud beasue space is at a premium, and most people run a bullet style muffler for clearance, which are almost all fairly loud. Ultimately, a cutout will not produce the same gain as duals, due to the scavagening effect of the crossover. Is there a definite possiblilty that it will be a small difference, absolutely, will it exist, absolutely.
