Default super budget true duals

So as the title states. Got Pissed at my hack job 3inch single with y and hacked it off after rear o2s. So I hit two oreillys and one AutoZone. Gonna make my own hpipe to go in and possibly get two glasspack thrush mufflers to go after the axle. I will post pics and measurements of it all by Monday.

Love the effort.
Hate the bends.

I'm making my own duals too.

Should have used mandrel bends but other than that it looks good.

How do you plan on going over the axle? One over each side?

Sorry haven't been on. It went worse than I thought. Everything was lining up right til I got to the axle.so I ran dumps. For about a day. Then a pothole grabbed the right side and pulled most of that side off. No damage to car. Just ego. So right now until funds come in I'm running right side dumped to the side of car and the left side running with a 90° toward the pass side. Ya its bad. Getting the bassani true duals with 4" corsa clones. However I have gained plenty of torque over the ory. Down the road I'm gonna either replace the muffler with power sticks or the gmmg, just muffler-back portion

The mock up doesn't show after we cut the piping and got the right angles.

Dammit. You must have be hanging extra low lol. I knocked my ypipe loose and for about a mile it went "TINK TINK TINK TINK" on the street. It was the end of the y. I knew what it was and me and my buddy laughed all the way back to work and pulling in the parking lot it fell completely off lol.
