You might just want to go to your local muffler shop and get some info from them. Here is a link off magnaflow's site for exhaust pipe sizing http://www.magnaflow.com/wideopen/performdata.asp I would go browse through their universal mufflers and see what catches your eye, I don't know what finish you want or if you want tips. Smaller mufflers will mean a louder exhaust so keep that in mind and also make sure to look at the x-pipes since you want true duals.

Thanks for the info. I would like tips and want it to gain horse power and be loud when on the gas.

Dumping them makes it really loud from all that I've heard, it might be cool at first but I think it will start to annoy you eventually. I'm sure some guys will chime in about their exhausts, but I haven't gotten around to doing mine yet. I plan on going magnaflow, maybe duals, but I only have a v6 so I would have to keep the pipes pretty small.

The two reasons that i would think t would be nice is it is pretty uncommon around me to see that kind of exhaust and i do alot of trail riding so i dont want to bend or damage them when going up inclines.

Well they can route it however you want if you have it professionally done. I have seen a true dual setup where both pipes ended on the passenger side. If you go and talk to someone at an exhaust shop they can help to address all your needs and concerns better since they make a living doing it.
