nahh i'm gonna ASSume that he's got long tube headers, because that's the most practical way to do true duals without having to do lots of custom piping.

True duals on the GTA, what you are seeing in the pic is the back of the mufflers. It has LT headers with two 2 1/2 pipes, I just recently posted a video on the exhaust board titled 'my true duals'(or something like that). The Camaro is actually an RS with a Z28 (IROC?) hood and front end. It is owned by a friend of my son, he is only 17 and it is his first car.

What mufflers are you using for that set up? My friend has true duals on his car and he is using the Dynomax Bullets with Pacesetter LT's and it sounds really good. He's thinking about getting a set of Sweet Thunders though because those sound even better, they're basically GMMG mufflers for a fraction of the price!

Cool. I'll make sure Cam-aro see's this because he is buying a true dual set up in about a week or two.

thanks for the info. do you have any ground clearance issues with those mufflers? they look like the end before the axle, maybe its the angle of the camera

Actually, the Hedman S extentions that go from the headers to the pipe are where I usually have clearence problems (speedbumps) because they go around the tranny cross member. The muffler clearence is not bad at all, they are right against the bottom of the car.

Thanks for all the compliments on the cars !
