he had flowmaster 10's before that, he liked how deep it sounded with the flows, with his setup on the car now it is quiet at idle, but when he hits the gas it sounds pretty wideopen. mine is loud just sitting there, go to LS1 sounds man, and listen to the flowmaster 1 chambers and see if you like it. cause that is how mine sounds when i gas it, but at idle it sounds mean as hell with the big cam i got in her. i dont have that brace under the X pipe that he does with my duals so im not sure what the reasons are other then keeping the body tight and kind like a drive shaft loop

i dunno man, a catted y-pipe is $325, maybe if i can sell my dual/dual for $200 i'll get TD's next year with headers. i'm debating whether or not it's worth it...parts are only like $400 w/cats, it's the damn labor bringing it out the back

hell man my labor costs were 125 to run it and dump it, my X was 90 and the flows were 72 each so i had less then 400 in that plus the 400 for my pacesetters. so its a 800 system

well the inlet and outlets on the mufflers are 3" in and 3" out, i would run 3" personally since the shop wont have to use reducers or anything and to keep it simple, what are the mods you have done to the car anyways?

alright after thinking about it some I am not sure that I want something as loud as true duals with 1 chambers. I am going to DD this and my gf is pretty sensative about loud exhaust. (my old truck would give her headaches) so I would like to try to keep the noise inside to a minmum. Is there anyway that I can run True Duals with a diff muffler and keep it somewhat quiet inside the car? I want it deep, low, and loud when I go wide open, but I don't need it too loud when puttin' around. Please let me know guys.

I am really thinking about going with the hooker/magnaflow exhaust setup...
I really like the tips and such on the magnaflow. Both seem to have a good tone and isn't that loud til u step in it.

I think I'm going to put you on my ignore list. I've never seen you offer anything useful, and you usually just manage to **** people off. Yeah, you're getting ignored.
