Default A True Dual Setup

I was wondering if anyone could help me decide on which true dual set up sounds really good, and has the best performance stats. I am looking at headers on back to the duals. Does anyone know a really good setup.

My QTP headers/ TSP true duals is a very bad *** setup. But it is very loud. As far as performance it would be hard to have any more flow as they are dual 3 inch pipes.

How much you lookin to spend? That is going to be your constraint...here's mine. Twern't cheap.



If you want to hear it, go to LS1Sounds.com, go to the true duals page, and my car is the sixth one down ('02 SS). There are three vids there, and a link to the only pics I've taken of this system.

Thanks LS1Sounds I didn't even know you had them up.

Nice setup!

I have the TSP dual kit and it is nice but I don't care for the lack of ground clearance. If I could do it over again, I would get the setup over the axle.

I hear ya on that one...that was a primary concern of mine. I don't know if you can really tell from the video, but my car sits pretty low to the ground, and I WILL NOT raise it back up to stock ride height. So far I haven't scraped anything with mine, but then again, I had to use 2.5" pipes to do it (after the X).

Eh, life is all about compromises. I've heard TSP duals in person, which prompted me to get mine. Sounds badass!

Those are Magnaflow bullets - the part number is listed under the clips of mine on LS1Sounds. Thanks for the compliment. That exhaust cost me a lot of $$$ and many nights of sleep.

Does anyone have any soundclips of the TSP TD's on a stock cammed car? The clips on ls1sounds are not loading-up properly. I'm trying to decide between TD's and a Corsa catback w/ headers.
