Texas-Speed.com - I have this on my car and I can't say enough great things about it. It seriously was so simple to install, sounds great and has great build quality.

You don't have to fab up anything, just piece it together and you are good to go.

Summit and Jeg's kits will need to be tweaked by a muffler shop, but it will be cheap. Also, Lane is still building true dual pieces. His are welded and come with everything needed.

I wouldnt suggest getting the ones off ebay. My friend did that from the exact same guy, and he already has those up for sale and is looking for a new setup. They give you maybe 2" clearance, dont sound at all like they should, and I have seen pop corn that looked better than the welds on the peices. Trust me, he had to get them welded again because just by looking down on of the peices you could see atleast 3 spots were light came in. And when we hit it with heat, it pratically came apart. I highly recommend you dont get that off ebay.

texas speed is whats on my car, but if you go with these and dump it off before the axle i recommend welding the rear hangers to the floor pan and not bolting them, after ripping the bolts out 100 times i finally welded then. If you dont have solid motor mounts the exhaust flexes and will pull the bolts out.

I wish someone would make a true dual to run out the back and the SLP CME would be real sweet.

As stated previously Bassini does. Here are some pics.
You can get aluminized or stainless. Aluminized compare in price to a Borla Catback stainless.

If you go to a hardware store, they sell these special washers called "fender washers". They are oversized and will NOT rip through. I used 3/8" bolts, fender washer on both sides, and a ny-loc (sp?) nut. Had them hanging from two different places and they havent even pretended to rip out.

Bolting them will work just fine if you have the right equipment

With enough tweaking and work, i've got my TSP system riding pretty. Had to bash in one of the bullets a little to clear the rear floor pan, and am going to have to dent a small crossmember under the driverside floor board, but other than that, easy as pie

Here's some pics.......
