My Z with true duals. 2.5in all the way, all mandrel bends, all welded. As for the sound, it's the meanest thing you've ever heard. I have a stone driveway and when I start it up, the exhuast blows the stones. Car alarms go off at idle...way fun.

I think the mufflers are by Moroso. I can find out for sure tho. The exhaust is the only thing I havent done myself on the car. I took it to the shop and told them what I wanted, and left all of the hard decisions to them. When I go back home from college next, I will take pictures of how they are hung, and of the bends coming off the headers. Oh yeah, and they are shortie headers. I have way enough ground clearance, I've never had a problem with the height, and I drive it all the time, over speed bumps and all kinds of crappy roads.

Looks familier hehe and yes, it's one of the loudest and meanest "muffled" exhausts I've heard. I'm running dual 3 inch with those same style mufflers.

looks good. how do you secure it to the body.

What about vibration of the pipes hitting the body?

I am about to start making my set up so I am looking for as many details as possible. Thanks

A hanger is welded to the back of the pipe at the last bend before it exits out the side. There is no vibration noise, and never hits the body. If you hang it right, there will be no movement of the pipes. I can take ahold of the pipe at the end and rip on it and it won't move. I guess becuase the pipes are short and the way the hangers go into the body they have a 90degree bend after they go in, that there is no movement.
