Default Is anyone running Texas-speed true dual xpipe?

I was thinkin about gettin the texas-speed true dual xpipe setup and was wondering if anyone has good or bad info on them...and how much of a pain it is to install. Does it cut ground clearance a whole lot? which mufflers sound the best...all that kind of info. thanks

The install was very easy. I had it for a while but honestly the drone got old really fast. The clearance wasn't very good. After switching out a few mufflers the Moroso Spiraflows sounded the best imo.

amen on the moroso's, that is what i have, and not just because i am biased, but i really prefer the tone they have, its a good bit deeper/smoother than most of the other options. ground clearance has not been an issue for me, but my car is also stock ride height. but i will say that i have seen several y-pipe setups that had as little or less ground clearance than myself

Had a set on my car and loved them. Car was stock height so clearance was never a issue. Although my car had Bullets, I'd recommend Moroso if you have a choice

Nope, they're dumped right before the rear axle. A lot of people have gotten them extended out the back under the axle though. It's fairly cheap too.



I like my Sweet Thunder mufflers. Quiet at idle/cruising, but loud as fuck when you get on it. There's a TA over here that has a MS3 and the TSP TDs with Sweet Thunders that makes me orgasm every time he rumbles by me in the parking lot.


Some sound clips of my car:

I'm the intro car (I was trying to use up the rest of the bottle that night, sorry for the excessive use of the purge button, lol)
