That is pretty cool as it opens up a ton of possibilities. After finally settling on what I want to do now I'm rethinking all over. Thanks!!

JasonWW>>Have you done with work on your own build muffler/pipes?
Very interesting on your work project on this posts... I really enjoyed read those posts.

I think so I will pick on Spintech muffer with oval pipes for my LS2 Camaro w/Dr Gas Boom.
Thanks

Thanks, it's going to be a long while before I do up the exhaust on my car. I have a lot of plans in the works. I'll be adding an IRS and I may raise the engine and trans up about 2" as well. this should give me more ground clearance and I can run duals on either side of the driveshaft, tucked way up. I'm really not going to worry about the exhaust until much later.

Nope, still not worrying about it.
I am reshaping the rear seat area. Basically raising the floor a bit higher than the trans tunnel. That will give me some space on either side if I want to mount mufflers there. I'm just working on the car a little at a time.

Bump for a great read. I realize this thread is 4 years old but I'm currently thinking about designing my own mufflers and this gave me a ton of ideas in addition to saving my wallet from the flowmasters that almost made it to checkout @ summit. Hopefully this will get some people thinking.
