I want a really deep exhaust note...I have a really raspy sound right now and I hate it! So what is a good true dual set up that will give me a good deep sound, I will also be going all the way out over the axle with this set up. Clearance is crucial so I think I will have to go with 2.5".
Either way TD is the way to go, and definitely go 2.5" if worried at all about clearance.

about to go under the axle with a set of custom removable pipes. need ideas for 3" inlet tips though. all i've seen so far have been oval tips which i don't care for.
edit: forgot i made this vid, but its the same set up as^ but minus the cam. driving and WOT in car. good stuff.

well i got my 3" duals ran back. crush bend but its still duals i guess. it will work for now and i think overall its a pretty good job. i need to make a couple shields but other than that its pretty much finished. also gotta pick out some tips still.
here is a video, the sound isnt the greatest but the car sounds sweet. there is no way possible i thought it would be this quiet cruising. its like stock honestly. but soon as i hit that peddle... loud as hell

^^^^Very nice. Those crush bends don't look all that bad. What did the materials and labor cost you? Definitely need a better camera or put it closer to get a better clip.
it cost me way more than i wanted. dont know how it even got as high as it did but it was $600, thats not including the mufflers or cats.
i will get a closer video i didnt know how well my camera recorded sound so i started further back. ill get a fly-by soon too

Finally got the exhaust done on my car. Here's a vid I did earlier of it. Ebay stainless long tubes, custom 3" H-pipe, no cats, and single chamber mufflers, under the axle, to the rear bumper.

^^^^Good god man that sounds sick. H-pipe is where it's at with the single chamber flows. BTW those wheels really look great on your ride.
Got any pics of your set-up?

Quick question, i want to put a true dual set up on my 2000 stock z28....i want to put td's with an x pipe dont know what kind? and slp loudmouth 1 shotgun resonators on eachside dumped before the axel... Would this be a good setup? Keep in mind i want it to be loud as HELL but sound good....any ideas please help me out this is my first f-body so im still learning..!!
thanks
thanks
cam, the loudmouth resonators will be loud, but also very raspy. Get a tube style Borla xr1 or Magnaflow, or some flowmaster single chambers. All of those will be loud, but instead of ridiculous amounts of rasp they will have tone.
