Mine actually got quieter going from an Slp Loudmouth with a dynomax bullet to a 2.5in dumped dynomax bullett x pipe. I think it sounds so much better and now I have zero rasp.

I've got 3" duals with Pacesetter LT's, a Summit x-pipe, and dumped 18" Dynomax Bullets. I love the sound, especially with a cam! The dual are MUCH quieter than my Mac mids/ORY with a GMMG cat-back.

Yea, I use to run the loud mouth on my red Z and it was pretty loud, but whats getting to me with the dumps is the interior noise when Im driving for 2 straight hours at 80mph. Giving me a freaking headache. So Ive been thinking bout running it to the back but under the axle. I know its possible that it will be visible from a distance but I wanna know if it looks ugly or not. Waiting on some pics

I have two friends that have tru-dual cars that go under the axle. The first time I saw it I was like what the f*ck. It doesn't really look bad, it's just something different the first time you see it. It does give it away to somebody who knows something about our cars though, they are going to know that you have tru-duals.

Were you "what the f*ck" as in that looks ugly or "what the f*ck" as in just wondering why the hell it looked that way? I was thinking maybe I can go under the axle and just put my back ground effect on there kinda stealth it out or hide it, same difference.

Nice car man. You're right you cant see it from the pics that youve taken. The only thing that sux tho is Im going to have to wait a lil longer cuz I broke my tailshaft housing last night on the tranny. Going bout 140 then pop goes the tranny, smoke everywhere the whole nine yards. But yea, the car and set up looks good, Ill definately run em to the back as soon as I fix my tranny. Keep posted if you take any more pics.

pacesetter lt's followed by duals with H-pipe dumped. Love the sound just bought the car in cincinatti and drove it back to winnipeg 22 hours straight in that car. Wore ear plugs for about 10-12 of those hours. just cause i was getting a headache lol. Their was ringing in my ears the next day. I am going to try side exit and see if i can tuck the bullets up a bit more cause 1/8-1/4" is scraped away already lol.
