Black widow or any straight through muffler

With our single pipe system. Mines a 3" all the way back. How are you all fitting those mufflers, like the Neighbor hater for example? I assume the the muffler would be inline with the Cat. Since there won't be any muffler under the gas tank, how are you dealing with the two tail pipes? Do the muffler shops have Y connections to deal with that? Any pics would be great.

Re: Black widow or any straight through muffler

Spintech makes a muffler delete pipe. It's essentially a y pipe in reverse. It's gonna be loud as hell. W a muffler far up stream I'd worry about drone but at the point of a straight through muffler, I'm assuming noise is lower on your list of concerns. I almost did a spintech delete or something like it and 2 straight through mufflers in the tail pipes. I chose against it, my car is loud enough.

Mines in the factory location and the tank is right above it. It's to the rear portion of the tank, but it's still below it. Not hell bent on the black window. Just wondering what my options are should I want something similar. Dynomax race bullet perhaps, I don't know.
