Default How to convert to duals

Okay I've been trying to search and search but haven't come up with all the answers. I have two gt take off exhaust sitting here. My goal is to get them installed on my v6 lol. What all do I need and where can I find it? I know I will need an h pipe to replace the y pipe and another pipe to go from the h pipe to the other side of the car plus hangers and so on. Is there any kit out there I can just purchase that has all that stuff? I don't want a full exhaust kit though jus the stuff needed to convert my car to duals using the gt take offs.
Thanks

Could I just run the stock gt x pipe? If so then I would just have to worry about hangers. Doesn't the x pipe make the v6 sound raspy though? I heard you should really go with an h pipe

Depends how you really wanna do it.

In all honesty...you could take the mufflers and your car to an exhaust shop...leave it...and it should be done by the end of the day.

Exhaust is pretty simple.

Yeah I thought about that but if there is a direct bolt up I would rather go that route because that's the right way to do it. If not though custom will work too I suppose.

I mean you can buy just an H-Pipe or an X-pipe online.

You could also buy hangers.

Are all the h pipes the same length and diamater or are some different sizes?

I am not an expert on our exhausts. I just went through a huge chase to get the system I wanted.

However, if you are looking for an H-pipe...it would prolly be easiest to just get the shop to fabricate you one.
