On a lift, it would have taken about 3 hours to tack it out. We did it in his crowded garage and it took around 5 hours on jack stands. I brought it back home and spent anther hour and a half welding it out.

Stick with what works. I like it more than duals personally.

Looks very nice.. In your opinion, would there be any room to place the 4" electronic cutout somewhere just after the pipe goes over the axle? I know where you have it is the simplist place, but I would like it out the rear if there is room. Any pics of it installed?

Sure there would be room. It can be done just like a borla setup. If it were me, I would run the 4" back to the axle, reduce to 3.5" before you go over, and then go into a stainless cutout like this one. But come out on the passenger side with one leg off the valve, then go across just the same into your muffler with a leg on the drivers side. IMO, you arent going to gain much just by bypassing a stright through muffler. It gets louder if you want that..........No pics installed as of right now, will get them later.
