Because this topic has a poll. Everytime someone votes in the poll the topic goes back to the top of the page when they voted, but whoever votes in the poll is not displayed so the last poster's name is displayed with the new time.

I was confused by it too for awhile.

So will the headers be released before the dual exhaust or after? I mean are you planning to release the LG F-Body headers and True Dual exhaust at the same time so people can buy a complete system?

Also, will you be using a Dr.Gas X-Pipe?

Vote for stainless here.

If it would hook to QTP headers, even better.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, and well - wrong...

But thanks for the laugh - I needed one today.

$1,100 for a full(out the back) true dual X system - especially stainless - is a DEAL!

Sorry for the multiple posts, but I had to wade through all the opinionated crap first..

Another great deal for a quality product. A lot of plumbing IMO, but the system appears to perform well.

So what's the time frame for your true dual over the axle setup?

I have been putting off having a local shop fab a set up from mandrel bends
since most locally can't do the type of work I'd like to see.
I have money in hand waiting for a system like this even if it's $1200+.
If it's a complete dual over the axle system I'm in.

2X2.5" all the way back made of SS gets my vote

Dual 3" would only be needed if you pushing 525rwhp, otherwise 2 x 2.5" pipes should be fine.

I like the Bassani dual in/dual out muffler pictured on ls1sounds.com, sounds nice and deep and quite too
