"There are basically two different dual exhaust setups that are available, the difference being the style of crossover pipe used. A crossover pipe will produce more power and better sound than not using one! In a nutshell, the X-pipe will give you better horsepower and torque and the H-pipe will give you better sound"
I personally have no crossover pipe due to having a custom set-up and not having the extra cash to have a crossover installed at the time. I can tell a slight decrease in torque, but not a whole lot. It still sounds very good though IMO, however just from what I've read online I will have a crossover pipe installed later on to create a "H". I am interested to see if I can tell a difference.

Spintech sportsman street xl mufflers 3331xl
![](http://i384.photobucket.com/albums/oo286/adams95ta/IMG_0109.jpg)
ok here is the scoop, I built this exhaust using the summit x pipe kit, add an h-pipe, and about a million random bends i bought in a brown box off ebay. I decided to keep the mufflers in the stock location. If i ran these before the axle, the would scrape on everything. They are big mufflers.

Cabin noise is MUCH nicer now than it was. I had single chambers dumped at the rear axle and I couldn't think straight with them there. I don't know what you mean by the mufflers resonating off each other? they don't move or rattle. I got the idea from this link: http://www.off-road.com/trucks4x4/ar....jsp?id=198878

repositioned the mufflers and the noise went away.
trick setup, though.
ive seen them side by side back there, but never stacked.

Just got mine installed a few weeks ago...
Hooker Longtubes, Magnaflow Cats, Flowtech X-Pipe, Flowmaster Single Chambers
The setup is currently over both sides of the axle
Gound clearance in the fourth picture looks terrible but I really have almost a full soda can
No sound clips yet but they will come
