Getting my car ready for a dyno day in a few weeks so I made up some true duals (haha) out of some old exhaust pipes that were going to get scrapped at work. All I did to the pipes was cut to length and trim the curve on the end so they didn't hang down too far.
I had some stainless V-band flanges welded onto the header collectors and welded some normal steel flanges onto the 3.5 to 3" reducers then straight into the pipe on the passenger side and on the drivers side I went from the adapter to a 18* mandrel bend then the dump pipe.
Here's how they turned out:

They tuck up pretty nice! Its pretty loud but sounds awesome.
Next step - NX kit

I need to reroute my fuel line and rear brake line to tuck mine up farther and pound the rear seats a bit. My 3in hangs to low. Its fine driving done the road but going out of a driveways is a slow process.
Looks good though.

These are just some glorified exhaust dumps I made up until I get around to fabbing a y-pipe back to my magnaflow.
True duals was abit of a joke.
No it doesnt smell like gas. Length of your exhaust shouldnt effect how it smells; if your tune is rich its gunna stink regardless.
