2.25" MANDREL bent true duals with H or X-pipe and some long mufflers of your choice...

LT's + highflow cats + short mufflers (14" Maggies or something of comparable size) = pretty dang loud. If you want it toned down a bit, get some bigger mufflers.

I've decided to go with the 14" Magnaflow (12198). I ordered it last night, and I'll probably order some tips today. When everything is delivered, I will get it installed at a custom hot rod shop. Until then, just to make it street legal, I bought a $20 glasspack from Advance and a turndown pipe and bolted it on with a makeshift hanger made from scrap metal. Its just cheap and temporary so I can drive it this week, but it sounds pretty badass. I had fun driving to work this morning. I'll take some pics and video this evening after work and post them tonight.

So here's a video of the temporary glasspack.

Hopefully in a week I'll have my Magnaflow installed, until then, the glasspack is not too bad - real loud.

Not too bad sounding, pretty long glasspack. Cant wait to hear your Magnaflow system. You did put a good effort into your temporary exhaust though!

i'll bet it'll be like mine but more aggression, louder idle, and more WOT rasp. What size Magnaflows do you have?
