Sadly may end up ditching it, not bc i dont love it or anything. But the car more oriented for the track than daily driving, and it wieghs a ton compared to a dumped Y.

My response was the blissful because they didn't know they were stupid.
Alas, I ended up in the latter fold, but not all is lost. The blissful provide endless entertainment when viewed with the right set of eyes.

My dad asked me when I was younger if I had the choice, what would I choose: being blissfully happy but ignorant, or intelligent & miserable.
My response was the blissful because they didn't know they were stupid.

I then had a conversation with a co worker about maybe it's better to be ******* clueless going through life.....

I have spent many sleepless nights skimming through this thread. Viewing it on my phone has made it difficult because it messes up all the time. But regardless... what I have gathered is that their have been revisions on the setup for better clearance and better clamps. All good. Makes me that much closer to buying it. My question is on sound. Has anyone stuck mufflers on it that I just haven’t seen yet. That’s my only hang up. Don’t want it stupid loud to where I can’t cruise it.

Well I pulled the trigger and ordered this kit today. It’s going on a SGM 98 TA. My biggest hang up was if they would fit up to my kooks headers, but I saw where at least one guy said he had no issues so we will soon find out!

I've watched some **** on youtube about spirals, I think they hurt flow but hey, it's the internet. I personally wouldn't go that route.
And I know I may get lit up for saying this, but IMO nothing sounds better than a two chamber flowmasters. Unfortunatly GM fucked us all with the limited under car room. Which is why kits like these come with bullets. I'll pull the trigger on this sooner or later, but dont need to have parts that I'm not gonna install for a year or two sitting around. And will have no issues cutting and modding to try different mufflers.

I had this kit on my car with Pacesetter headers. No real issues, but the kit took plenty of tweaking and fitting like most others have experienced.

Id buy their long tubes and the true duals if I was in the position to do it all over from factory parts.

i bought your SE true dual kit with rear exit. I’ve been working on several mods over the last few weeks and finally I am ready to install the SE kit. My Kooks headers are older step headers. They are 1-7/8” stepped to 2” and have a 3” collector. Upon test fitting a few pieces, the SE kit slides right onto the kooks with zero issues. I will definitely update once everything is 100%. But everything looks very promising!

I have pacesetters and just got my true dual system from speed yesterday. RE: fitment and install, so far, so good. The only thing I am wrestling with is some adjustments at the rear of the car and the body mount tq arm cross member I have. This system clears the body mount cross member, but just...FWIW I have the midwest chassis body mount tq arm with the cross-member for true duals, it's a tight fit. You should be fine with a stock tq arm or aftermarket long tq arm that installs at the transmission.

Well I got the system installed and I am very pleased. It looks great and sounds awesome. It connected flawlessly to my Kooks LT Headers! The system tucked up very nice and to be expected you are going to loose ground clearance but I think if you are doing aftermarket exhaust on one of the 4th gen f-body’s it should be expected. I went ahead and used all the clamps and hardware included in the kit. I may end up changing a couple for better sealing but again I am overall very pleased. It installed very nice with little headache, at least no more than any other automotive project! Like others have said, there are no instructions and although it is not hard, a simple page or pictures of hanger orientation would help save time. I feel like the system is as tight to the underside as it will get. I was fortunate to have friends that own a lift, so adjustment was not too bad, but I could see it being a bit more of a pain doing it on jack stands. Very pleased!
