Default Borla True Dual setup (pics)

These are some quick pics that I snapped. They were using a cheap disposable, but you get the idea. I'll have some better ones later in the week.

The setup is:
2.5" Tubing.. slip-fit at the headers and stainless steel band clamps.
2.5" mandrel x-pipe- slip-fit coming out of the x to allow the exhaust to be taken apart easily.
2.5" center in/out Borla XR-1 Sportsman mufflers (40942) [3" is (40943)]

Pics can be seen here..Borla Duals

Compared to my old TSP Rumbler setup... This is ALOT quieter.. With just easy driving you don't really notice the exhaust. I like the thump when I'm at a stoplight or something.

Go wide open throttle and you get a constant rising roar. No drone and no rasp.

Do you rember how much the XR1 mufflers are???

I currently have Longtubes no cats and Borla with the 10% plate in it and its loud then most loudmouth/rumbler systems im looking for something a bit quiet for local driving.

I am not real sure but it looks like you did a BANG UP JOB on the rear passenger seats? Not saying anything bad just thinking you could have cut and welded some pretty pieces in there instead of the hammer. Other than that I like it a lot wish I could go 100% race car and do a real nice jobe with some duals. I bet it sounds sweet!
