Not everyone wants a car that can wake up the neighbors at 2AM in the morning. It's not all about loudest.On to your claims of ET's. So you're saying that true duals will net your almost a half second faster times over a good flowing catback?
Riiiiiiiiight. Unless you have the same car going from a catback to TD's you can't compare. Too many variables. I personally love true duals, but I'm lowered in an area with shitty road, big speed bumps and I live in an apartment complex. I don't need to scrape every single speed bump and I don't feel like hearing complaints from my neighbors.

i feel the same, but of course all the people i live around love cars and have or had older muscle cars in their life time once. so they dont get bothered by my car, even when it was straight headers they loved the car. so guess im lucky. now my mothers house is a different story, i just tell them to **** off and mind their own business

I had TD's on my old camaro, it turned out to be kind of a pain because I unlike some people I try to respectful to my neighbors. Well it would rattle stuff in my house when I started it. It did sound good but it was just to loud, and even louder with the cam. Plus the H pipe was in the way when trying to pull the trans, not fun. Plus no one made a driveshaft loop that would fit.
With my current camaro I'm looking for a ypipe/catback setup, so I can easily put on a spohn cross brace mount tq arm and have a driveshaft loop.
