Are you planning on exiting out back or dump before the axle? I am going to dump before the axle. I am kinda worried about the loudness, but I am told the bullet muffler is actually quieter than my flowmaster (NOTE: until you get on it!!)

I'd been thinking about exactly the same setup-- 3" crossover, small mufflers and 90deg out in front of the rear wheels.... (did it on a heavily supercharged xxxstang I had;worked great).. I'm assuming you're doing this coming right off of long tube header/standard 3"/3bolt collectors? Where are you buying the Dr. Gas parts and who makes and sells the bullet mufflers? Not enough room for cats, even if you wanted to, I guess. What are you using for tuning with cats? Are you using 02 sims?

Definately go for it! I switched from my Borla to my current true dual setup and it sounds sooo much better. Its actually quieter then the Borla was, so noise really isnt an issue. But its so much smoother, much more exotic sounding...
