thanks everyone for all the advice. greatly appreciated. i just put my old muffler on there tonight. im takin it in tomorrow to get checked or whatever then im takin it to the shop to get true duals put on. i'll have them do true duals from my front two cats with two glasspacks. i'll still have the two rear cats off. do you think this will sound decent??
If you don't want to change anything just bore a hole thru the pipe just behind your exhaust tips, shove in a ball of steel wool just to quiet down to the needed tone, insert a bolt thru the pipe to hold in the steel wool and go get inspected. When you leave and get back on the highway and up to speed if you didn't use to much just shift into netural and give it a couple of revs to blow out the wool and keep on getting down the highway.

cherry bomb sells an 8 inch glasspack. I had those on one of my old trucks. it was true duals though but it is exactly like runnin a striaght pipe because the inside is a hollow metal tube and its only 8 inches. and it is loud no matter what rpm.

My truck is A LOT louder than my friends. I have true dual straight pipes with the 2 rear cats removed. No crossover, mandrel bent. My truck sounds just like this one (I forget his username, but he's a member on the forum.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t9QSMtF5xeg
The dual glasspacks with the removed rear cats should sound dang good. Going from a single exhaust to true duals will have an effect on the tone and volume as well. It'll have a deeper, more rumbly exhaust note.

Apperance is everything, take and find a old cat and and old muffler split them open on the TOP with either a plasma or a torch. Strip out all the baffels or enough to slide it over your pipes. Make sure that you have the you made on the TOP of the muffler and cat. Bead it up around the in and outs with the pipe runnin straight threw it.
