It's the LS1 TSP Rumber X system. Just make sure it says TRUE DUALS under the category name.

The true duals are 10X better than any Y pipe. I have installed both a tsp ypipe and true duals on f-bodys and the Tsp y pipe is a total pain in the ***. Just get the LTs and the true duals and you will be very happy.

Kook's or QTP's as long as they have the HVMC on them, either are AWESOME. I run the TSP rumbler X w/ Borla XR1's....

The top one is for duals, youd still need to buy headers (but dont need a Ypipe). This is the Rumbler-X-pipe duals

The bottom one is for headers and a Ypipe, youd still need to buy a cat-back exhaust like the normal rumbler.

Hey, thanks for all the help guys, really appreciate it! one last question do headers and exhaust really hurt gas mileage on these cars? I mean I didnt really buy this car for gas mileage, but I dont really want to get 10 miles to the gallon. I'd like to keep it decent for the street, not running it on the track or anything. Thanks again!

Theoretically they are supposed to help gas mileage as ur engine would now be breathing better.

If you want tips run them over the axle (best, but difficult and more expensive). Under the axle is cheap but you lose ground clearance.
