I love my true duals. Mine cost me $240 including the Moroso Spirals which have a 4" case and 3" inlet and outlet. They are deep toned and there is no rasp. I'm running 3" piping , x pipe and dumped at the axles. Love the sound. F@:; a catback

I paid $250 at my local exhaust shop for 3 inch duals dumped in front of the axle. I supplied the mufflers and clamps. I chose to go with 12 inch Dynomax bullets and couldn't be happier!

Sweet Thunders sound the best, IMHO. Here's a quick video to give you an idea with heads / cam

How do you embed your video like that???


BTW I may be able to give you the specs of the kooks true dual exhaust system. I could measure it all out. then you can have it look real good out the back over the axle and also not get crap all over the underneath of your nice looking car.

Tech just went through a bit of a formatting change. You can't copy the "share" link anymore to have it show when you post up. You have to copy the address from the address bar for the time being. IT is working on it....

All part of the pain with this system....try 2" headers and 3 1/2" collectors! Had to cut about 2" off the entire system length AND a second set of mufflers and tips to fit right.

Worth the pain as they do sound pretty good especially with a few cubes behind it
