Default dual exhaust

I've got to redo my exhaust here soon. Do any of you have any suggestions of dual exhaust and pics of yours from underneath im trying to figure out how you run the duals.

If you want quick and easy go with a single in/ dual out muffler. Or you can do new headers and run two single in/single out mufflers for a true dual exhaust. Do a search on the site and you should pull up a whole bunch of threads discussing this topic.

I did search for it but it didn't have anything that really showed pictures. Thats what I'm really looking for is a picture. Cause I"ve seen the kits that are like 300-500+ and I've seen the 1 in 2 out mufflers for like 100 and I'm just wondering is the pre bent pipes really worth the additional 200 plus bucks and also where do you put the muffler so you can run your pipes

There's an ongoing ordeal that the single pipe gives better performance than a 1 in out 2 out setup. true duals i think is the best setup, but costly.

If your just doing this your self... and you have a pipe bender you are almost limitless on how to route the pipes.

here is an exploded view

personally i think that the kit is the easiest way to go. The exhaust on my truck is a flowmaster super 40's series American Thunder kit. I just ordered the kit from Oreily's.
Another good thing about the kits are the fact that they work off of the sotck hangers already in place.
It is a true bolt on kit you just remove the stock muffler and the new clamps right into place.
The kit comes with all the clamps, but I reccomend you clamp the pipes all together and drive it for about a week to allow for any settling the pipes might do then I would weld them all in place
