True Dual setup: Low drone, ~GMMG sound?
Just curious, does anyone have a True Dual setup on their f-body that resembles the LOW drone and deep sound of a GMMG setup?
I'd love to hear what you all have.

Go for the Classic Chambered Powersticks. I have them on my car (not true duals) and I love them. Check the link in my signature for more info.
Also, heres a video of them in a true dual setup. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showpost....9&postcount=19
These are by far some of the best sounding mufflers I have heard. I switched from a GMMG setup on my car to these, and I love them.

i have duals (LT headers, x-pipe, and dual dynomax bullets.. routed under the driveshaft with no clearance loss), which I have ran in 3 stages of completion:
1- cutoff before rear end.. ran like this for a good 8 months.. very loud at all rpms and all speeds.. lots of drone.. but sounds downright badass!
then I got a ticket and needed to finish them over the axle and out the back, so:
2- when i was taking them over the axle, I ran out of mandrel bends before i got done, so i had the passenger side tip completed, and the driver side pipe went over the axle and was cutoff facing directly at the ground.. I drove like this for about a week waiting for new parts and I have to say the sound was the coolest like this.. it wasn't as loud but with the one pipe facing straight down, it created a really sweet echo'd sound like the chambered setups give you... it had no drone inside the car, and still was loud enough to make people hear me from a while away.
3. finished the the passenger side tip out... the resonence and drone came back again (really wierd), and i lost the cool echoing sound, but still sounds badass.
on my next setup I am going to take them over the axle, but then dump them instead of using tips.. hopefully i can replicate the sound i had in setup #2

I had the Bassani True Dual system with Magnalfow converters, and mine sounds pretty deep:

The thing that throws me off is the true duals on a cammed 408 will sound different than a 346... Would the sound be pretty similar?
Dang, you may have me sold
The bassani+magnaflow setup sounded good too

And you said drone is gone for the most part (with your setup)? I'd definitely hate to get sick of hearing the droning exhaust.. How do you drink drone would be with a True Dual PowerStick version of this? If it would be significantly more I may have to steal your setup!!
What do you think the total would be for doing a true dual setup? If you'd ship, I'd be willing to eventually buy from EAD since you helped me out and suggested that setup . But I'm still checking around, too ..
Meaner sound, better numbers, no drone would be awesome!

I can ship the mufflers for a true dual setup, but I can't do the entire system unless you can leave your car with us for a day. For how little clearance there is with these cars, and all the different setups with torque arms etc, I wouldn't do duals unless I could fab them directly on the car, otherwise you will have a poorly hung system with little ground clearance.
We have a couple mufflers left in stock, along with plenty of mandrel bends if you want to take them to a local shop and have them fab it on the car.
