Default TD's!

So as i get closer and closer to my goal of:

TSP 1 7/8th LT
Borla XR-1 Muffs
Corsa Tips.

Im still having difficulties finding TD's that will go over the axle..

my question is will 2.5" be ok or do i need the full 3"

Im planing for a cam within the year or by the end of next summer. so i want to build for that.

Cam that i am going with COMP: CAMSHAFT, LS1 XR275HR-12

there's no way to have equal length true duals over the axle unless you relocate the gas tank... and having unequal length true duals over the right side still sounds like a Y-pipe and defeats the purpose of true duals.

here's my old car with my 1st under-axle setup

QTP 1 3/4 headers, 3" x pipe, bullets in the middle, XR-1's in the back with 4.5" borla tips. i moved the old exhaust over to the new car and switched the XR-1's out for magnaflow 4x9x14's, because the borlas were too damn loud. (had to modify the rear tub to fit the magnaflows)
