you can buy from companies on here....but make sure you know what there products sound like and make sure you like them....i looked at several but in the end, im going to go with a shop i know, where i can get a good set of true duals installed for 500 bucks....where as parts packages can just cost that much themselves....just do your research

my 1st setup was that of oval tubing w/side exit....$500 for the tubing and $350 for install


my current setup, $800 fabricated/installed (guy bent all the pipes and custom made the setup to fit perfectly, 3" over the axle)...look around your local shops, often enough it'll end up being cheaper and they can do an awesome job...i have referenced countless people now to my guy
