When I put true duals on my T/A I built my own.
Just put the headers on and go from there.
You can buy mandrel bent pieces and cut and weld them where you need them.
I would use one of those dual in dual out magnaflows that have the x-pipe inside to eliminate that step and then dump it.

Yeah, I did my own pretty much from my LT Headers on back, but I kept the stock cats, just moved them back about 18" because of the header length. I basically traced the shape of the route on sheets of cardboard and had a local shop do the bending. Used a short "Y" pipe that the local muffler shop stocked just before my si/do muffler.

If you can't weld, pick up a small, 110v mig welder. To an old stick welder like me, using a mig is almost like cheating. You can probably practice on scrap for a couple hours at most and be good enough to do your own exhaust...
