I want to dual my sixer but am soliciting recommendations. Anyone know which kind of a setup will get me the best sound?

Also, what can one expect to pay for something like this?

you don't NEED dual exhaust you WANT one
a need is something you can not live without and want is something you desire

I'd spend my money on something else for the car, personally.

A Mustang with one pipe looks... wrong...

Always looked wrong on a "performance" car.

Lots of Hondas have 1 pipe and everybody makes fun of them... doesn't sound fair...

I read and read , are duals all about looks and sound? or will they give you something you'll feel in terms of performance enhancement?

not much in way of performance over a single. unless you plan on adding stuff like a supercharger later.

i would stay away from magnaflow atleast the magnapacks. i had them and the drone was horrible. i couldnt take it anymore and got pypes dual exhaust.

just looks and sound ...

that's why the GT take-offs make the most sense.

because with the money that you save you can buy a Tuner

.............. or any other mod of your choice.

I put a GT take-off on my six. It's not a dual, but I very happy with the sound (I wanted to avoid the drone tha several others experienced).
