I want to have a set of true duals made up. I originally wanted to have 2.5" over the axle duals made, going into my slp center exhaust tip’s but that would kinda be a pain in the ass.

I was thinking about going the traditional true dual design with the x-pipe ad straight back but instead of where the dumps would be, before the axle, have it run under the axle and up to my center mount tips, but I was thinking of making the sections right before the axle to the tips being connected by v-bands for easy removable if the car ever needs to go on a lift or anything.

any idea’s? Center exhaust tips are a must. Dont want anything to do with dumps. 2.5" or 3", I dont care.

its just about sound John. I could care less about any type of gains. However in the future the duals will benefit me with the route I have planned.

I was tossing around a electric cutout as well right after my Y pipe merge.

I dont care about how loud it is. That doesnt have anything to do with it. I dont like the tone of it just cruising around going through the gears.

I want a deeper more aggressive tone. Not raspy like it is now.

U can do under the axel but ur clearance woll be hell. An x pipe on our cars withnthe dsl cross member and tq arm we run also causes alot more issues with fitment and clearance. To save ur self a huuuuge head ache, in both $ and issues, electronic cut outs are a good idea, but if u go tru dual their really isnt much need for them… If u do cut outs get them installed off the collectors of the header…not after the y-merge

I think dual 3" electric cutouts on my car would be super dump and very overkill. Not to mention almost $400 for both.

its a 400rwhp car. Not some 1000rwhp boosted application.

a 2hp gain isn’t worth adding a extra cutout IMO. I could add 5\* of timing and get 5rwhp back for free.

2.5" duals vs dual 3" electric cutout’s right in the collectors are totally different. Big different there.

my car isn’t anywhere near 650. I have no clue where you got that number from.
