i cant decide if i like this or not, im going out there after work to look at it. the issue is i have about 2 inches of ground clearance if they mount the mufflers up under the car. which is no good. and they couldn't find anywhere to put them to get any clearance except back there. if anybody would like to post pics or suggestions please feel free. my other option is to run some bullets (which i'd rather not). the setup here is 3" true duals with x pipe and hooker max flow straight through mufflers. i might leave them like this for a while i dont know, i really wanted to use the big dookie 4" chrome tips i bought but i cant use them where the mufflers are in the picture.

hmm...they look fine to me. but clearance would be an issue. See if they can mount them exiting downwards behind the axle ( clearance may be another issue ). can you mount the muffler earlier in the setup?
P.S: i love all the cat'd mufflers leaning against their wall.

So, what do I think? I think you need tips. It just sounds better with tips. I know how cool, yet loud, and over time annoying, a bullet sounds. For the firt short while it's "Sweet! IT sounds like a NASCAR!" lol Then after a few months you're sick of "Huh? What'd you say?"

there has to be another way to spread those headers out to hug the gas tank, i would think so atleast. even if you stayed like that i honestly think you would have more clearance than you think. if you had the mufflers before the axle you would scrape more than where they are currently, just my 2 cents

personally, i think bullets sound like ***.
as far as the rice rocket fart pipe look with the mufflers being in the back, i went out there last night and looked at it and they are tucked up enough under the car that you dont even see them but from a good distance away. and when you see them, they look badass. i think im going to be different on this and just roll with it. hell its just exhaust pipes ill change it if i end up not liking it.
most of the people with true duals on here are running really small mufflers like bullets so thats why this is kinda tricky. and the shop thats doing this does not have much f-body experience. they do mostly fords and vipers. but thats just because thats what most of the cars are where i live.
ill put up more pics as i get them. thanks for your input ppl. good or bad.
