I think it takes alot of time and custom fitting... I would be doing it but am opting for the standard "false" dual exaust muffler (40 series from flowmaster). I cant stay away from that flowmaster sound...3" all the way back though and no cat so it should make up for the little backpressure they make...I hope.

You can make a single work fine... only reasons for true duals IMO are bragging rights and the better sound

that is EXACTLY what hooker advertises..."deep throaty powerful sound that doesn't change with time." i have a hooker, and even for a 6 it sounds deep and throaty. go with them i think.
