Well, most of us true duals folks are going with an X-pipe nowadays (as opposed to an H-pipe). This is the setup I highly recommend, and if you choose this setup, you will need the X-connector and 4 45-degree bends, mufflers, and a good exhaust shop that can fabricate the rest (including turndowns or whatever you're planning on doing). Justin Sutton on this board makes a great X-pipe. Get aholt of him and he'll let you know what you need.

What kind of headers do you have? If you have headers that don't have collectors you can put the pipe up to the headers and use a band clamp.Alot of people make these dynomax & borla just to name a few.
