Default dual/dual and 1 7/8 headers

does anyone know of any places that may have one in the back of the shop or someone that wants to sell me one. As my neighbors call the cops everytime I start my car-as it disturbs their baby.



How is the fitment of the TSP 1 7/8 headers? As I am going to need them with my new 408 that will be going in. the neighbors are going to love that haha.

I know the dual dual isn't made anymore but there still may be a few around that people have and would like to unload.

The dual/dual works great. But they are pretty hard to find now. I pieced mine together. I found the muffler on an auction site and bought the individual pipes minus one from SLP on closeout. For the pipe I was missing I used the one from my magnaflow. And bought tips from someone else. It was worth it though, it really sounds good. FWIW SLP has a new exhaust now that is supposed to be much quieter than the loudmouth.

The over axle pipe was the one I was missing also. I used the one from my magnaflow CB.

Thumbs up

I used the Dynomax over axle and I pipes on dual/dual setup. They sound great matched with my JetHot 1-3/4" longtubes and ORY...

Idle and Rev before I found some tips (226 cam):

Thanks. The dual/dual mufflers are out there...just gotta keep looking. I lucked out and scored a brand new one ($100), along with the tailpipes ($50). If you total everything up, with the Dynomax I and over axle pipe, the stuff listed above, and the Ebay (Fast Toy) tips, I have about $300 total invested.

I love it...ZERO rasp and quiet if you want it to be.
