the takeoffs are from 99+ GT's so they already have nice stainless tips on them
for mufflers get force mufflers from
http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...0265&langId=-1
part#395-5201 will fit the GT takeoffs perfect
the force sound and are built just like Flow super 40's but you can buy 2 force mufflers for the price of 1 super 40
i have heard the force mufflers. they sound sweet. i'll see if i can find a clip of them on a
sixer
here is a post of a satisfied guy with force mufflers. he is the one that posed a clip

thats not a bad idea as its already set up for my cut y...im going to call a couple places in the city mabout half an hour away cuz i live in a small town,and see what kind of quotes and stuff they can offer, like how much to get that true dual exhaust with pipes they have without asking for any kind of pipe specifically like the take offs. what kind of muffler and tips would be best for this set up without spending too much ?

RE: gt take-offs
i dont have alot of money so the chance of me ordering some mufflers online is very slim...I got some quotes today....from my split y-lead pipes,magnaflow mufflers,and tail pipes are only 300 installed is the cheapest i got,for turbo mufflers its only 200 but i talked to a couple people and they sound like bumblebees lol,i dont want that...ill definately check out the sound clips tho..
thanks
edit...
Let me look at the price before i begin to say slim to none, sorry...lol they are cheaper than i thought......::continues looking::

RE: gt take-offs
at 30/each thats not too bad,saying the magnaflows are around 100 or 80 a piece i think...and the guy on that site seemed VERY impressed with those...that gives me more to think about....dang....also what do u think of straight lead pipes versus an x pipe to these mufflers?...i heard the x pipe gives it a more deep sound but im not gonna pay an extra 75 bucks or so to just get the x pipe if it sounds about the same....

RE: gt take-offs
from the looks of it, you could take them to a muffler shop, get them welded back in and have them weld a straight pipe from the cats to the GT take off. I've seen other posts where v6 dudes have done this. don't really care about making any money, I just don't feel good throwing away two good mufflers and stainless tips, but it needs to be worth my time to package them up in a huge box and take them to be shipped.

RE: gt take-offs
what kind of sound with these gt take offs vs the straight dual/force muffler/regular tailpipe?
I have read a testimonial u might say about the force muffler but nothing really for the take offs being that much more than stock sound for a v6? anyone?
