I love my TSP TDs. I daily drive my car and would never switch back to a catback setup. The system tucks up and has better ground clearence than my old y-pipe setup. The sound is great and is very tolerable. And when you go WOT it's awesome.

I love the TD's, and will not go back to a y-pipe. I have them out the back and its great. As a DD,with the LT's its as quiet as a catback under 2,500rpms, anything above that starts getting loud. Theres nothing better than seeing people flinch when you go by them at 5000rpm, especially when you know theres 1500 left!

Not a chance.

I have to run "extensions" for the car to pass inspection, which exit at the stock locations. It sounds like absolute ***. Plus, after having TDs, I don't think there's a catback that'd sound mean enough for me.

Love my setup. I like the fact that when I start it up all the cars alarms that are around me go off. the interior sound is a little loud, but the outside sound is amazing.

Lets see... Love the sound to death, if I were to do it over again, I'd throw em over the axle and get some REAL mufflers (because I like a good sound, but I live in OC (lots of cops) and I don't like being heard 3 blocks away when I decide to play with the fun peddal a lil) - I'm currently looking into getting mine over the axle and replacing my dynomax mufflers with some 3" in/out Hooker Aerochambers... only thing I need now is some cash! lol

I love my TSP TD's. Awesome sound at all rpm's. I want to get them piped out the back and round up some CME just for the look.

I have spiral flows at the rear over the axle with tips right behind them. Its not too bad but can get loud and droney after awhile. I wonder which mufflers would be a touch quieter and a lil better sound/tone? just askin, not that im disappointed with the spirals.

Like to see a pic of that... I was thinkn about that...

I have X dumped with 2 LM2's and the sound is loud and deep. I totally understand why no one wants to go back. I just can't take the constant volume. I'm thinking now about a nice Y and CB with electronic cut outs right after the cats. That's if I don't like it after I try running it out the back first. Will I ever stop playing with this damned exhaust? So much $, so much time.

duals dumped at the axle with 40 series flowmasters.
i used to hit the mufflers all the time. i put on lakewood's traction action lift bars, which is pretty much a ladder bar set up and is very stiff and the mufflers dont hit at all anymore

True duals into sweetthunders dumped right berfore the rear axle. Sounds great, and I would not change it for anything.
