headers, custom x pipe, and single chamber flows

Ok i'm sure this has been covered but would it be possible to put headers, a custom x pipe and single chamber race flowmasters on a 91 camaro..........also if this is possible would it sound good....i'm wanting louder and better sound. I have a 40 series dual out single in on my car now and it sounds good but i wanna know some information about true duals.....ne one know if this is possible and how it would sound behind a 305 5 sp

With the 5 spd You can go with the Hooker Super Comp LT hdrs #2210 1 3/4 primarys with a 3 in collector and a costom 3 in x-pipe to 3 in cats and mandrel bend pipes to the muffler of your choice to the tips or turn outs, or downs, This set up creates that low loping ,rumbling sound with awsome flow, that helps make the american third gen coveted ( or ticketed!! LOL) when heard coming down the block. We also offer mufflers with built in cutouts for any 3 in set up!!! There are many other options though, If you would like to discuss this further PM us with your phone # and we can answer any of your questions!!!


P>S> The Hedman LT's don't fit a manual trans.

Do you have pictures of the #2210 and the X pipe on a car.

Jake if you send me your email address, I can send you a video clip of my Iroc with two one-chamber flowmasters on it. Granted your setup would sound somewhat different if you go with duals. I have the stock routing and put my flows right up under the bumper... one on each side.... only 2.5" also. I love the lope at idle, but the sound is kind of excessive above 4k RPM or so and with dumps it would be really loud. I'm under the impression that those flowmasters do very little to quiet things down. If they got graded on actually muffling sound, they would get an F! (but that's not everyones ultimate goal, is it?) Hey, quieter than open headers though. Oh yea, those clips are 4 or 5 megs apiece so your email will have to handle it. Another thing about these one-chambers is that in order to get any sound reduction out of them, you must run some pipe after the mufflers or they will do nothing. I hate my tips, but after a few months I just had to have something after those flows, because the loudness was driving me insane (but then again, it was probably resonating off the inside of my back bumper, too). In fact the instructions that come with those mufflers suggest you run x inches of pipe after the mufflers. Sorry I don't remember how many inches it said, I just remember reading it.
