Question Borlamouth Ideas, Looking for Input

Going deaf and am finally annoyed with my LT ORY LM exhaust after two years of "loudmouthing." I know the standard Borlamouth setup is an XR-1 welded in place of the LM resonator. I was wondering if anyone had considered placing mulitple XR-1s elsewhere, like in the Y-pipe or on each rear taipipe. I'm especially interested in the "one on each tailpipe" setup. Is is not advisable to have unmuffled exhaust most of the way through the system and such a short amount of pipe after the mufflers? Thanks in advance for all the help.

If you think about it the GMMG is basically this same thing only with chambered mufflers instead of borla's.

I would place them in the tail pipes rather than the Y-pipe if it were me.

Ok, thanks. Are two XR-1s overkill with stock displacement?

Thinking about that too. So is there much difference in interior sound, sound heard alongside, etc. between mounting the muff up at the y (or even more forward) as opposed to back past the rear axle? Seems like the farther upstream, the less unmuffled gas thrashing though the pipes and maybe less interior and side sound. What do ya'll think?
