OK, I did a search and all I came up with were old broken links that didn't show me anything.
I'm looking for pix of a TRUE dual exhaust setup. I've seen Demon's, but i was looking for something with an X-pipe, instead of his H-pipe.
The background on this: I have a 99 Cougar V6 MTX that I'm getting fabbed up by one of my co-workers who does alot of work on my boss' Trophy Truck. Its full custom fabbed, I just need an idea of how I'm gonna route this. I know Demon's goes under the gas tank, and IIRC I saw one setup that went around the tank. Getting aluminum for a heat shield is not a problem, so I'm just concered about any other problems associated with going under the tank.
I was planning on 2.25" diameter piping. I don't have much by the way of mods at the moment, but I'm wanting to get exhaust now that I can keep and bolt onto a 3L in the future. I'm also planning to get MSDS headers in the mix as well. I would also like to keep cats to keep the treehugging DMV people happy, where the heck can I get "aftermarket" replacement cats? I did a google search that really showed nothing like what I want.
If any of you guys have any pics or audio clips of your setup, it would be greatly appreciated. Not many folks over on NECO have the "true dual" setup (in fact I don't recall ANY off the top of my head), thats why I came over here to ask. I originally wanted Flowmaster muffler's, but I'm worried that with a true dual setup its gonna be too loud. I heard someone with Magnaflows and it sounded pretty sweet.
Thanks for any help you guys can give, I've heard you guys are MUCH more "performance oriented" than the NECO guys (no offense to any other NECO'ers who post here).
EDIT: I read a little more about sizing and changed my mind to 2.25" instead of 2.5". I wasn't aware it made that much of a difference but it does apparently.
