Sometimes it's loud <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> I just finiished & went over the axles with the pipe. 3" all the way, soundsalot better inside, outside, no difference.

Re: Bullet mufflers and dumps ??? That is an awesome exhaust setup. Could you go over what exactly you have? Were those pieces custom fabricated or did you just buy them pre-assembled? What kind of power difference is there between dual 2.5" and dual 3"? Also, how does a dual exhaust system sound different from a standard y-pipe setup? Thanks for any help. I am thinking of making a dual system with Hooker longtubes, Carsound cats, dual 2.5" or 3" with X-pipe, and chambered mufflers. I want to have exhaust tips out the back though, Is it hard to get the pipes over the axle and out the back without them getting bent or being in the way? Thanks a lot for any help.
Sorry this can't help the original poster, but I thought you might be interested in some of this. If not, I will delete this post and begin my own. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

That sounds like what I want to do <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> . I want dual 2.5" pipe. Black Sunshine, whose x-over is that, and how much did it cost?? I want a pair of Flowmaster 40-series 2-chambers after the X and ending right at the rear tire.

I may go with something simpler with a H-pipe under the tranny, but an X would be <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0"> .

Re: Bullet mufflers and dumps ??? The setup actually goes out over the axles now, I just dont have the pics posted anywhere. It is 3" all the way back. I dont know what the difference would be between this & a 2.5, but I'm thinking of the future, when I spray, and when I go to 383 all bore with a 200-300 shot nitrous. I would rather do things once. It took some experimenting to get the exhaust this far, but I am pleased. The X is from Dr. Gas. I can get you one just like it for $75, (instead of $104) e-mail me.
The setup I have is all custom. I wanted to go with a Flow 40, but I was worried that it might not fit. I might experiment with that this year. Anyone got some 40's they want to donate?
The exhaust is loud compared to stock, but much better now that I have the pipes going out the back. The x does tone it down a bit, over the H, and if you wanted to tone it down even more, you could go with a longer bullet. Good luck <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />

Re: Bullet mufflers and dumps ??? Alright, thanks a lot. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> Now I know what size piping to run. 2.5" for me. I shot you an email about that X-pipe and the rest of the system. Thanks again.
