flowmasters

Does flowmaster have a catback with true duals for a '92 firebird conv? I have heard that you can't have true duals on these cars......Please inform me and guide me to the right website.....I tried looking around on here but I didn't find any real answers.

No they dont make a catback that offers true duals. You can have true duals, but most of the time, you sacrifice a little ground clearance. Also if you cant do the work yourself, its gonna cost a bit to have it done, that is if they will try.

wow......no offense, but have you tried the search button? i am usually the LAST person to say this....but even by scrolling down the page you can see different true dual exhaust examples all of which are CUSTOM and none are available off the shelf. I have true duals on my car, but it's a huge ground clearance hassle, and unless your motor is going to be jumping and not a daily driver...it's not really worth it in my opinion.

Finally, people can't fit dual flowmasters on there, if you want the look then just get a dual pipe flowmaster catback

Funny you should say that.....if you read my original post you will see that I stated I had done that but didnt really find anything besides a bunch of I like to do this, he likes to do that crap. So next time you think you're the last person to say something it might be more because you missed something. No offense either, but you kinda made yourself hold up your sign.....lol

as you can see this is why i said i am usually the last person to say search, but look at everything i found within 5 minutes. none of these run flowmasters because there really isn't room, i believe one person did, but he has about 4inches of clearance.

Well, the original question is if Flowmaster makes true duals for our cars. The answer is "no".

Of course, the question that wasn't asked is, "Do you need true duals?" Typically, same answer.

I see what you are saying. I guess I focused on the quoted part more than the "does flomaster make a dual ex. kit"
