Side exhaust
it would take some work fitting longtubes and the y pipe and a muffler cause i want it to be streetable. I will have to think about it and do some reasearch. Any other help would be great.
I think a y-pipe setup would be more trouble than it would be worth. It's not to difficult to do LT's, duals, and side exit (even with 3").
Here's a link to my install (bottom pic is not my car):

If I had to do it over though, I'd have made a few changes.
I'd probably run with no cats, although they were not very difficult to clear - just few taps on the floor pan to tuck them.
The car-chemistry insert mufflers are more restrictive that I thought. I'd use bullets or something similar with a straight through design, and get rid of the cut outs. The cutout flanges where the hardest thing to clear and are are still the lowest point of the exhaust. I'd run an x or an h pipe - without either of those, side exit dual setups tend to make kind of a chugging sound at some rpms, when you're only hearing one side.
here's some pics of the car - it's hard to see the exhaust though. If you enlarge some of the pics you can see them a little. I ovaled the aluminized tips to tuck them close to the body - I wanted a subdued look, which I think I got, instead of bright shinny tips. To each his own though...
