Do You need anything done to the suspension to run it under the axle? I want to get headers and a catback(Hooker aero Chamber) Now thats like $350 for CB. Now running dual exhaust from the headers you would figure could be better performance and around same price? Its only piping and two mufflers, and some tips would be nice. I figure under axle would be easier for the shop too, now how bad is ground clearance? thanks.

I just noticed you have a T/A so go ahead and run out the back. I agree, with a Camaro, dump the exhaust, with a T/A run it out the back.

the answer to me is simple: if you drive your car a lot, TD's dumped gets to be old from inside the car. if you drive it 2-3 times a month, then put up with the drone and rattling. i personally got sick of the TD's dumped for a couple of reasons and went back to an ORY set up

I just purchased the TSP True duals dumped. It all comes down to personal preference. If you cant handle a bit of noise then go out the back. Ive got a TA and I still dumped. I do plan on having the bumper painted (got rear ended) and the exhaust/license part of the bumper blacked out. So that might help a lot with thinking something is missing. I figured worst case is if I dont like it I can always pay a little extra and have them sent out the back but for right now im just going to save the money and go dumped. A friend has a dumped setup so I used his as a test of if I would like it or not. I feel a muscle car should show rumble and vibrate a bit. Thats just me.

ill never run over the axle again. this quote is kinda blown out of proportion, as all those elements apply to any exhaust. i thought my bullets would be too loud, they were for about a day. then i loved it, and most likely wont run another muffler/setup. it sounds very good.
