side exit exhaust basics with oval pipe
hey guys, first post. needing ideas for using either oval pipe or boom tube style exhausts. currently using headman headers with the 3 inch collectors into well you guessed it nothing but an open pipe for a couple feet. needing to exit infront of the rear tires and not an axel dump. any help is appricated.

Re: side exit exhaust basics with oval pipe
There have been a few cars on here that have used Boom tubes with success. The biggest issue is ground clearance. You'd need to find someway to anchor the ends so that they didn't flop around.
Also - welcome to the forum!
I currently have heddman longtubes and duals that dump at the axle.
