Question True Duals Questions

Going to have a lot of questions regarding true duals, so please bare with me here

i currently have GMMG c/b with an e-cut out; DMH. to make a long story short i had stcok exhaust with the e-cut out and it sounded good. then i went and paid $700 for the GMMG, re-installed the e-cout out. when i got the gmmg on, i had the cout out closed it sounded familiar, but good... i opened the cut out and it made no difference at all. so i was pissed i bought a $700 dollar cut out.... anyways now time for a different route.

now for some true duals..

ok so here are some questions sorry if they are random.

1) If i have true duals, do i need to run LTs?

2) What does TSP stand for?

3) What are some good X pipes? Or should i do a custom one? And good H Pipes?

4) What size piping do i go with? 2.5" or 3"

5) As far as mufflers, i am running it out through the back end, i was thinking of going with my MagnaPack mufflers, made by MagnaFlow. Any other suggestions?

6) What is the best way to run the piping? Over the axels or under?

If i can think of anything else i will post it up.. thanks for all your help!!! And any other additional info you all can think of, post it up

1. yes. Otherwise you are going to have to do some custom ****.

2. Texas Speed And Performance. Highly recommended.

3. TSP.

4. 3" but 2.5 is fine if you are not planning on running major hp.

5. Running it out the back requires some custom work usually, I would just dump them personally.

6. Under gets my vote.

Dont be afraid of TD's, its definitely the best way to go.

I had my exhaust done with LTs included (pacesetters) for like $700 with labor...

TDs are the best sounding exhaust setup on LSX motors bar none... from what I've heard of course :p

I had mine dumped before the tire tho...
