Two days with a single GT takeoff
and i am going to convert to Duals tommorow. I got the mufflers off of EBAY, for $15.50 cant argue with that. My muffler shop quoted me $85 to custom make an H pipe and they have the driver side hangar in stock. I am so excited is the sound alot louder from a single or is it about the same. Tommorow cannot come soon enough

a gt takeoff should be a must mod unless you have another aftermarket muff in mind already or a dual setup in the works. i can't imagine my car still sporting the v6 factory muff [:'(]. you can find gt takeoffs really cheap and you can install them yourself. better sound, better flow, better babes .

I expected nothing more than improved sound (which i didn't like at first - i'm picky). But I did notice an overall gain (nothing dramatic) but a gain nonetheless. Seemed like the engine wasn't wheezing through a straw any more. I've got duals sitting in the garage... they'll be going on first chance I get.

RE: Two days with a single GT takeoff
it was very noticeable, It took about a day for me to be able to tell the difference. Start up and idle are awesome i love it and through the lower RPM's it sounds real well. I thought it would get a little ricey up in the higher rev's but it isnt as bad as i once thought. You should be pleased. I did not get a chrome tip yet but when i put it in the shop tommorow ill probably have them weld 4" inch chrome tips just like Sancho805's those tips are incredible.
Has anyone had problems with custom H pipes made from muffler shops?

They still look awesome though. I spend a lot of time staring at Sancho's car in his sig picture. Very slick.
