After the blower they came alive.

As far as the Y pipe, I'm running 2.50 true duals w/X pipe so no Y pipe.
The Y pipe IMO was a better invest before I ran true duals.
So the true dual may actually hurt my performance rather than help it? Or will it not have any effect on my truck with the x-pipe?

No man it won't hurt your performance. I know you'll lose a little back pressure but you gain that torque back up top.

I wanna do this asap but to get rid of the cat I would have to have it tuned to read that there is no cat there! I mean...the SES light is still on because of the high flow cat and cut off the pre-cat! So would it really matter if I just went ahead and did away with that sensor?

Re: Going Spintech

search 02 sensor and cat threads, you can space your o2 away from the cat with a pair of spark plug non fowlers and run a hollow cat, with no c.e.l

Re: Going Spintech

You call Ron or Dave at Spin and you can have a custom one made if you want.
I had em make me up a Sportsman with 5 coils 2.50 in 2.25
dual out for a 100.00. It's out in the shed. I really like my Afterburner
from Flowtech now but one thing about a Spin...they are built like
a freakin' tank hands down !

Re: Going Spintech

I ordered two Pro shootouts today. I told the man that answered the phone I've converted over from Flowmaster. He laughed and said you won't regret it at all. Matter of fact you'll ask yourself why you didn't do this from the beginning. I'll have a new clip up next week. I just hope I can get a good quality sound since my truck is so damn loud. I may just do an idle, rev, rolling shot, then WOT.

Re: Going Spintech

I was thinking Pro Shootouts for my Chevelle. But I also want to run cutouts, so maybe a little mellower muffler would be better for my Chevelle.

Either way, it'll be dual spintech mufflers

That will cost ya. I can't believe how much Prom and shit is. I understand being a little low on dough. After the muffler change I need to quit spending money on the truck for a little while and focus on more important stuff.
Well, have fun at Prom and especially have fun after the Prom. lol

Heh-he! Yep, it's a dang Ford but have fun in it. I'm a huge Vette fan. I would love to drive one and one day i will own one! I already told my girl when she moves in I'm gonna get one! Dude...if I had 1600 bucks I'd snatch that LS1 to swap in my truck but right now I need to save as much as possible. I already have every bolt on I can think of. lol Hopefully tomorrow or Friday the mufflers will be here. At least that's what i was told. The anticipation is killing me.

I told my parents next summer I'm going to buy a used zo6 wether they like it or not! Mom told me she would never allow a vette in the driveway...but you can pick up an 02 with 45k on ebay for like $16,500 all day long! I've seen several!

Dude...its not even my truck or my mufflers and I am excited about you gettin em!

I know. That's why I'd settle for a 01-02 possibly an 03 by the time I get one. I hope I'll still have the S-10 too. Man I appreciate it. They should be here tomorrow. I was told they'd be here Friday. I can't wait either man. I can't wait to see you get your truck going the way you want it. Did you ever get your W4M tune on? They make a hell of a difference.

Just so happens that I got my tune in this morning! I had one on my first truck and I think it helped more on this truck...prolly due to the fact that I have light weight wheels on it..cuz our zq8 wheels w/o tires on em weigh 18lbs a piece! The 18's I had on my last truck weighed roughly 35-40lbs a piece!

When I first put it on though the truck idled really low and when I would put it into reverse it would die and when I would put it into drive it would die also! But I just drove it around for a few minutes and let it sit in the driveway for a few and it's good! Much faster than stock! And the SES light is gone! Had the cat delete done on it so now I can buy my mufflers and get ready for my true duals!

Think you could get some pics of the underside of your truck so I could show my exhaust guy can get an idea! He says I cant do an x-pipe and dual mufflers under these trucks! hahahaha

Yeah man no prob on getting a shot of the exhaust. I'll get a shot of it when my exhaust guy has the truck up on the lift. Those W4M tunes are like day and night. I'll have a pic up and a clip tomorrow.

Hey bro I got 'em put on earlier today. They do sound better. As far as at an idle, they sound very similar to the Super 44's. But at WOT, it's a whole new ball game. They are definitely more aggressive sounding. I got some pics of the setup but at the moment I'm at my mom's. When I get to my house I'll throw 'em up for you to enjoy.

Agreed.
That's what I really like about these mufflers. At idel/light driving they are mellow, but once you floor it the sound is aggressive.

Re: Going Spintech

Hey buds here's my setup
Also I made an WOT clip on my way home tonight. I couldn't really top her out because of cops around my house and boy do they know me but you get the picture of how quick the truck is. It does muuuuch better at a dead stop hence the 4:10's and 3000 stall.

Enjoy

Re: Going Spintech

lol Hey thanks man. I'm glad I got you wanting this setup. Go show these pics to an exhaust man and now tell him you can't run true duals. I highly recommend these mufflers and not anything else.

I'll get a video of the truck in day light rolling away. These mufflers sound crazy when WOT. A lot more aggressive than Flows by far. My truck ain't really got a good roll and go. From a dead stop it'll plant you in the seat. I started to get another video but didn't want to test my luck. i know I will be heard. lol

lol yeah bro will do. I dunno about the racing though. I might get owned if you hook.

Later on I plan on an LS1 swap with a blower but right now isn't too great for me the way times are.

I wont hook for quite a while cuz i'm just throwing the 5.3 in there with intake, heads, cam and a tune. I wont hook cuz also cuz im not going to do the rear end for a while after...just drag radials.

An ls1 with a blower would be soooooooo sweet! That would be soooo fast man! But very expensive! Do you have anything done to the rear?
