Default request - duals over axle muffler setup and pics

I need some help. After days of searching I found nothing but dead links.

I have texas speed 3" true duals with bullets dumped before the axle now. 408, big cam, long tubes.... its way too loud.

A local exhaust shop is going to run the 3" duals over the axle and add mufflers of my choice. The problem is I dont know what mufflers will fit and where to put them.

The shop has requested pics of similar setups so they can know what to do.

Please post over the axle duals pics and let me know what mufflers you are using.

The more mufflers the better. I want to run 4 total. Two bullets that are already on the car and add two more mufflers after the axle.

Thanks.

Maybe you can put 2 MagnaFlow 14419 before the rear bumper and tips of your choice.

Go to the true duals sticky. There's 50 pages of pics.

Hope you have a lot of printer ink.....

Hell, I'll help.

4 Mufflers?



It's not over the axle, but it can be done, and you get the idea. The shop will know what to do.

4 mufflers would work better under the axle...

Give them some pictures of the kooks dual exhaust setup. This picture above does not give then any idea how to run the exhaust over the axle. There's a video on youtube that shows the system in good detail as well. You could even show it to them on your phone.

I have been to the True Duals Sticky. There are lots of dumps and under axle shots.


When I say 4 mufflers I mean two before the axle like my current setup... but get rid of the dumps and run the piping over the axle... then add two more.

(and to be clear I do not mean 4 mufflers after the axle. thats just silly.)

Any ideas what the specs or part number is on this muffler? Is it a case muffler or round one?

I'm going to guess they're Borla Stingers, or S-Types, as they call them.

Why over the axle? I had a under axle set up and it never scraped unless a good size speed bump, and the axle never hit going through travel. But have them make it so that you can unbolt it right in the middle of the axle tubes so that when you lift it, the axle doesn't get hung up on the exhaust.

I've alway's liked under the axle veiw, those pipes ran under the axle let's everyone know you have a dual setup, and it's no lower than the header collectors.
