Default this will be interesting

I just got my QTP headers and TSP X pipe installed last night. Now what i am trying to figure out is how i am going to get my X pipe/true duals to run all the way to my cat-back. Am i going to haft to order some custom bent pipes in order to do this or what? Also i don't want to have mufflers that dump out right before the rear axel so that idea is out. Thanks for any responses gang

new pipes will be needed..and the over axel ones will have to be tiny and expensive.

Awesome, take as many as possible and post up! I've been looking for more "over the axle setup" pictures and haven't had any luck to speak of. Are you having it done at Speed Inc or a local exhaust shop, or what? Details? Thanks!

Also i was hoping to run a 3" pipe all the way to a cat-back. Will this work? Also explain how it will. I don't think ive ever seen a cat-back that can collect from 2 seperate pipes. thanks

if you want to run 2 separate pipes,you'll most definitely need 2 mufflers.you could just put 2 "dummy" tailpipes that make it LOOK like you have a muffler.BUT you'll be able to tell that you dont have a muffler,since normally you can see it.i dont know you got me stumped...

Yes thats basicially what i'm looking for, but do you think instead of having the ATR mufflers i could convert it to a cat-back. Or would anyone else know if i could do this?

WTF, what are you talking about converting it to a catback?? Duals have 2 mufflers, 1 in each pipe. No catback!
