Default dump exhast!

Does anyone have pics or ideas on dumping the exhast! As my first issue is ride height of the exhaust,so I was going to just come off the y-pipe with a bullet 12 or 18inch muffler and then dump down just before the rear end!

I know many people like the true duals but i have incon Twin turbos and the y-pipe is already made with the kit. And I don't think I would see a power gain as it is only 12-18inches of 3" pipe!

Personally I am not a fan of dumping exhaust fumes beneath a vehicle but I am sure it will work just fine.

I'm pretty sure you will see some gain with a Y pipe dump, because you don't have the increased backpressure from the over axle pipe. You may not like the fumes inside the car, but it may not bother you. Mighty Mouse on here has a Y pipe setup with a bullet dumped before the axle with the turbo setup. Soounds bad *** too!

Well there is no way I can have the exhaust out the back with my fuel tank. So it is dump or try going out the side. But the side would be hard and a height problem!
