Default summit x pipe

So I plan on makimg my own true duals with the Summit x-pipe.
I heard that there is extra piping needed.

Do you guys think I could use part of my ORY to make it work?

You'll need an extra 90 degree bend to make it work properly. It's like $14 so I wouldn't go hacking up my ORY, just in case you decide to get rid of the duals down the road...

I did my true duals from a summit X-pipe kit.

Of course, I'm running off the stock manifolds, not long tubes. It would not hurt to buy a couple of extra 4" radius U bends either. I used the 2.5" X pipe kit, 2 summit 2.5" bullet mufflers, and I actually hacked up the I pipe instead of using the U bends (will incorporate those later when i go over the axle.)
