Default Got My True Duals Put ON!

It took him 3 days cause of time reasons but its all done now! He did everything from scratch. Sounds so much better then a Cat-Back system. I left the cats on because of warranty reasons. I had to go 2 1/2 inch pipe for rear axel clearence because I also wanted tips. I will post pictures and audio soon. I went with the Dynomax Bullet Mufflers. I have a question for thos who has true duals. These actually go back in their own pipe and dont connect at all. Driving around and reving sound awesome but when I get on it in high RPMs, she tents to sound like a truck with they heavy machine gun type of sound. When I put the mufflers on, it took alot of it away but should i get a pipe put on connecting the 2 to hollow out the sound or will that now help?

Yeah get an x pipe or an h pipe to connect the two.
This should help the sounds and give you more power.

Sounds like you did it the streetable way of going over the axles? Good for you!! If there's room to fit in an X or H-pipe connection it will balance out the two pipes and lessen that percusive note you mentioned. How much did it cost you if you don't mind me asking?

I have stock manifolds rightn now. I dont wanna break warranty just yet so here pretty soon Im going to order me the QTP LTs. Im going to have a 2 1/2 inch cross over pipe put on in a couple days. For my mufflers and stuff since I have been through so many. I had him rigg up the tips and mufflers so they can be bolted on and off so I can keep changing the sound. Its alot easier this way for the sound and performance i want instead of having to go to my muffler guy and have him do it for money all the time. Well I will post pictures and audio soon of the sound. Sounds good and hollow and hopefully will sound alot better. Thanks

Cool I was waiting for someone who did duals on Stock Manifolds. I wanted to do this too, I definitely want to see pics of this so I can tell the guy how to do it.
Are you using cats?
