Sound fine, and look horribly tacky.

How do you plan to get the dual 3" pipes out the back? I have seen it done with 2.5" pipes, but that is very tight.

OK, how's this, keep the headers, ditch the cats (unless you absolutely need them), runit into a X pipe, puring into bullets and out to anything other than those tips-any! And yeah, keep the 3" pipe just run it under the axle. Contrary to some opinion, it won't be hanging any lower than over the axle, plus you keep a few hp by not having all the bending over the axle. Nice big 4" polished stainless tips would be nice. Damn, I just described my exhaust soon to be, minus cats though....Coming to a navy blue Z before Christmas. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> Good-luck.

Charlie.

I only know of one person who ran the exhaust under the rear... He posted that he can't even go over a speed bump.

I saw the REMAINS of what was left, of an 'under-the-axle' 3" pipe! Let's just say, that seeing what happened to his car doing that... I will never ever consider going under the axle!!!
