SLP sells a true dual kit, I believe the 01 and 02 SSs and Firehawks are all True Dual (not sure on years or models...)

No one sells a true dual kit. E-mail me for pix. My shop quoted $600 for over the axel 2.5" TRUE duals.

I have 3 pictures of my dual exhaust setup, but they are a bit dark, can anyone lighten them up a bit, I can host them.

Email me at prostockjohn@hotmail.com and I will send the three pics.

Default Re: i want true duals! how do i do it?

I know, I switched exhaust at the track, from the 3.5 through cutout, and actually gained 1.5 tenths going to the duals. This was on the stock motor. So as stated, you will loose power <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> but will go faster <img border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" title="" src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" />

Here is a picture of a friends exhaust. I am not sure if it will help! exhaust

Plenty of clearance, but the tips could use some work!

Default Re: i want true duals! how do i do it?

I have true duals but had to comprimise on where I dumped them due to my HP MegaBite Torque Arm that ties in with the SFC. So I had to put the dumps about the middle of the car...I originally wanted to dump at the rear axel. Clearance is pretty good, but to go over the X brace and torque arm mount bar would have put them about 2 inches off the ground, BAD IDEA. Good luck.

I shouldn't have phrased it as "no one". It's easy if you want to dump before the axle, but to do dual rear outlets is harder and no one sells a kit like this...yet.

I hate when people mistaken loss of a little low end torque for loss of power...cracks me up <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />

I didn't know you wanted them out the back!

A guy here local does it and he runs 3" underneath the rear axle. It isn't low at all and the 2 cars he did have the eibach prokit. There seems to be plenty of clearance and they haven't had any complainbts yet. Although when I spoke with one of the guys last he just sold his car so I couldn't post pics!
