Thats an interesting idea Nighthawk, I never considered not using a X pipe at all. It would be a lot less trouble and less expensive too. Do you still plan on doing this on stock manifolds? If you do I would definitely be interested in seeing some pics. I am looking for ideas because Im in the market for Duals too.
Yeah, I'm using the stock manifolds. I guess they're pretty decent (2001), so headers are pretty far down the mod list. I'm fairly sure I'm going to do the bullets after the cat pipes, maybe with an H after the cat pipes but before the mufflers- don't know yet. But yeah, whatever I do I'll have some pics of it. I'll let you know.

By not using a x pipe your going to lose some torq down low. But who cares you don't race down low do you up top everything will be great. As far as sound you will just have to do it and see what you think. Everyones differnet.
