Are you talking dual system from the extractors back, or splitting in 2 after the muffler?

My olds have dual pipes from the extractors back, meaning 2 cats and running 1 3/4 piping, its god damn loud i tell ya!

you're better of having a Y collector after the straight throu muffler then branch the pipes out over the diff both sides. having 2 of every thing isn't gonna do you good. what you save from just having one cat, muffler,less pipe can go towards a nice stage 2-3 Alted RPD cam & valve springs.

ok mayb i didnt xplain myself properly. it is a single system till it hits the muffler. then it goes two ways to either side of the back of me ute. it will look fantastic, dunno wot she'll sound like tho.

well i dont kno. id just assume that a single pipe to the muffler wos enuff. the reason i want duel at the rear is cos it looks very nice on utes. if i had a sedan id go single.

probably be cheaper and easier and lighter to just run a single and then put a fake tip to match on the other side. i've got my exhaust dumped at the dip and a fake tip on the rear to keep the car looking normal and cops off my case and you can't tell it's not connected without putting your head under the car or sticking your ear there to hear that there's no noise coming out or hand over it to feel it's not warm or no air flow aye. but as i said, it'll look just as good if you do it right, it'll be cheaper and lighter.

So does RPD now have camshaft packages for BA/BFs now?
Cause I surely haven't seen anything about it...
