Default TSP duals

Thinking about getting a set of these. Has anyone gotten a set and then had them ran out the back later? If so is it still possible to go over the axle with them or is under the only way?

i saw that bassani makes a true duals system now. the system is out the back and i think is one pipe over the axel and one under but i'm not sure. it uses he muffler as a kind of x or h pipe.

Check the link in my sig

It would be hard to go over the axle with the TSP system because there is a pipe on each side of the TQ arm. The driverside pipe would have to go over the rear end on the driverside, which would be very tricky, and VERY VERY tricky with 3" pipe. I have absolutly no problems with mine going under the axle though.

both pipes go over the axle. one just circles under the panhard rod. it has a x-pipe at the beginning of the system. pics of the system are on my webpages. click the links in my sig to view.

Blur...it looks like you have a pretty good amount of clearance with those. How do they work for you? I am thinking about getting the tsp duals but wanted to run them out the back as yours are.

I really don't want to run the risk of the axle smacking my pipes if I go under the axle...nor the hassle of taking them off every time the car needs to be raised.

how do the bassani exhaust sound compared to other systems like flowmasters or borla? And are they worth the money?

i love the sound of true duals if i had the cash id get them. As for sound the flowmasher is ok but you will gain so much more power with the bassani. i see that your realitivle ynew here charlize let me be the first of many to tell you that you don't want to put flowmaster systems on your car, the chambers make it sound really nice but they are so restricting and you will sometimes lose power or gain a max 5 horsepower with the bolt on cat back systems. if you are looking for a cheap great sounding system get a loudmouth.

That's the best under the axle I'ver ever seen. I never thought I'd go this route but now I'm thinking differently.

Thanks for posting these pics

As long as your suspension doesn't unload big-time, the rear probably isn't going to hit. If it does, it won't hit very hard. I've hit the railroad tracks on my way to being late to school a few times going FAST, i KNOW the car lifted enough for the swaybar to hit the tails, and i felt no ill effects.

As far as lifting the car, you can still jack it up by the center section on the rear end, then put jackstands under the axle tubes. If you want to jack it up and unload the suspension, you would only have to remove 6 bolts (which couldn't be more out in the open).

I'd say go for it. As long as a semi-good shop does the install, you shouldn't have a problem. I printed out a bunch of pictures of DVST8OR's car (almost the same setup) and took them to the place with the car, then told 'em "make it look just like that".

My only complaint is they diddn't get the tips as close to the bumper as i wanted, but i'm going to fix that myself when i get around to it.

I love mine...the sound alone is worth it. Just dont lower your ride.

You can go over but you gotta relocate the PHR...I'd go under if I wasnt insane and loved the feums and noise inside my car.
