I was thinking of coming off the Cat with a cherry bomb "muffler" and then a Y pipe to duals W/O mufflers at the ends. Or possibly a Y pipe to two cherry bombs and out. Has anybody done this and does anyone have pro/con thoughts on this? Thanks

Cherry Bombs are cheap junk. Do a search on this website for resonator edelbrock dynomax etc and see a quality alternative to what you are suggesting. I have talked till I got blue in the face all about what you're talking about.

Ok. Cherry bomb or multitude of other possible devices I am actually after the design. Is the idea flawed in it's design? The parts I will look into once I have a design to follow. One of the reasons is when I brought it into have a price quote on custom bent duals (I know the opinion on custom bend) and they guy was concerned with the proximity of the fuel lines to where the second muffler would go. I have an SE...Anyway I figured if I put the "muffler(s)" up near the cat I could put duals in with plenty of air space between my fuel lines and my exhaust system.

The idea itself should be fine.. There are quite a few people here running just the resonator and no mufflers at all.. The SVT mufflers are a straight-through design, which doesn't do much muffling..  I replaced the resonator with a freer-flowing resonator that Meineke carries, more authorative tone w/o any rash or riceyness.. I kept the SVT mufflers because the entire combo sounds perfect right now (anyone that's heard my car in person will vouch for that), so why mess with it? When you remove the cat, I tbink you're going to introduce some more noise/rasp.. That's my main concern in going to the MSDS headers, I'm not sure how loud it's going to get. Good luck.
