Yeah. Like LT's into a Y-pipe out the back with the flows.

thats what I did. I've got pacesetter lts, ory, and two 1 chambers mounted behind the rear axle. I had to angle them to make them fit but they fit fine. It sounds good, wot is insane!

I'll try to get some pics, I can't get sound clips though. I think I lost the cable for my camera, I'll see if I can find it. It sounds good, very loud and deep with that flowmaster sound

I was thinking this too, but I figured since i'm gonna spend the money on custom doing the one chamber, I might as well spend a lil extra and do it right..with true duals.

Well most people go TD for the sound alone. So if this produced close to the same sound it would be a lot cheaper option for most.

I have them after the axle on my TSP rumbler. I put them on to kill the rasp after my H/C, header, and off road Y install. They killed the rasp and deepened the sound. I will try to find someone with a camcorder and post the sound clip.

Not having tips on a T/A looks bad IMO.

Here you go
The blue SS has JBA headers, a expanded stock y-pipe, and a single chamber flow

Is that T/A at the beginning yours? It sounds really nice!

Not really sure if I like the way that SS sounds. Is it dumbed before the axle? I think if there were two after the axle it will probably sound better.

Hey mad618 you got any pics yet?

I know this thread is 2 months old but i figured i'd bring it back up rather than make a new one. If there was one 1 chamber on the I-pipe would that kill flow and cause too much restricion?? I want to try and incorperate this into my borla, might just leave dummy tips and have it dump right after the axle with the existing borla I-pipe, and get rid of the borla y section and muffler. I want a more refined sound but don't want to hurt the performance, and oh yeah i dont have money for duals. I also already have cats and a 2 1/2 y-pipe on my car, so i dont want to kill my performance for sound. The borla with cats doesn't sound that bad.
