i dunno dude, just run it back and save yourself the cancer later. i think it is bad for the heat on the underside of the car, not to mention you breathe your exhaust while you are idling.

on my old 85 iroc, and soon on my 87 iroc, i had true duals w/ heddman shorties, glasspacks, and chrome turn-down tips. what do you want to know about it? it wasn't too loud, it was perfect. the exhaust emissions weren't any worse, by my estimation, than my current setup, which is what a lot of people here are running. of course, i don't have emissions testing, so i could be wrong. i say go for it. any more ???'s?

well...I live in Alabama and we don't have any smog stuff... what I was considering was the glasspacks out of the headers with some turndowns so as to direct the exhayst at the ground.....

After eight months of duals vibrating the interior, hitting bottom, falling off, etc. I'm throwing in the towel and conforming to the single setup.
