Default 2.5" true dual systems

Does anybody have any pics of their 2.5" true dual systems, or know of a company that makes one? I would like to run a 2.5" x pipe into flows and td. I would like some pics to take to the exhaust shop. Thanks

TSP is a 3". I like the looks of that system, but have read complaints of ground clearance. Also, i think the bassani sys. is a rear exit and I would like to dump after the mufflers.

but the design of the TSP will be the same as the 2.5" setup you want. so the picture still works for reference.

can it be done? Yes...i have done side exhaust. Just be aware that youll have low ground clearance..even with oval pipe like i did. Its just difficult trying to tuck the pipe up high enough, yet not burn the floor board

i don't even know where to find oval pipe. i know of a coating that may work perfect on the floorboard that supports high temp. will the exhaust shops have oval pipe? i am not sure how the oval pipe will fit in a circular 2.5 inch exhaust tip though....

I got the Bassani duals. 2.5" mandrell bent tubing. I love them. They made a big difference in performance. I didn't really notice anything when I added the headers. http://www.stealthram.com/bassanidualexhaust.htm
