got my true duals from speed inc several years ago and am very happy

You'll want mufflers or it'll sound like sh#t, but high flow mufflers barely if any affect performance

I had speed make me true duals through an X-Pipe w/dumps before the axles.... bolts right up to my FLP headers (I can drop the exhaust in 5 minutes)

Make the drive a little further north (from central IL) to FLP. IMO.

If you can make the trip, it'll be worth it.
