Cant post links here but the link is under the like and dislike indicator just under the video. It is G6 owners club...you can Google it if you like.

@xofloppy11xo You caught me...You are a genius. I can tell you are elite just by the exceptional grammar you use in you magnificent critique. Furthermore, your knowledge of automotive design is astounding. I did not realize one would "catch on" to the fact that a straight six has only one bank. I am relieved you busted me out. I will no doubt sleep better tonight...thank you floppy

@smitty47 OK My bad. I don't have true duals or duels on my car at all. It's all a big lie. I don't know what I am talking about. You guys are both right. You both are very smart and should should apply for a crew chief position for John Force.

@jetmech5 ...Do you have a direct link so I don't have to search through everything on the site? (Doesn't seem to have a very obvious search feature...)

@IvyMike551 g6 owners club (link is at the top)  You can see pics of it there from front back. You can also see how both pipes are routed around the fuel tank. There was also a custom hanger made for the back.

@jetmech5 you really got offended by me telling you your car doesnt have true duals didnt you? haha. okay bud...im just saying that theres no reason to try and tell people you have a true dual set up because you bought an X pipe...thats all im saying. and its not "technically true duals"...the only way you can have "true" duals is to actually have them...you can have dual exhaust but its not nearly the same as having true duals...youd be better off getting a supercharger if you really want HP.

@jetmech5 If you have too less of restriction you will loose velocity and torque. Too much restriction and it will kill the top end power. This is another reason why I opted for an X pipe muffler. It has a crossover tube built in to the muffler to scavenge exhaust and keep the velocity up in the flow. If you look up the purpose of an X pipe in an exhaust you may better understand.

@jetmech5 Then rout both pipes in the recess for the original exhaust and then around driver side of gas tank. After that where you put the flowmaster 40 s is up to you. I used an X pipe muffler from magnaflow. That eliminated using 2 mufflers. You will also remember that you need to keep the velocity up in your exhaust to gain torque.

@killthefox89 It was about 500 all together and it is all custom 100% stainless. If you are going for true dual set up you will need to cut off both banks exhaust pipes right after the cats then have new flex bellows installed. Get the heavy duty ones installed.

Hey bro, quick question for you. How much did that cost you to get done? From what I have found online it seems that you had to have it all done custom... I hate how the gtp has a one in two out muffler design, BC the way it sits means if you just wanted to replace the stock muffler, the piping would have to be custom bent just for the flowmaster super 40, which is what I want. But doing that would logically increase back pressure which may cause some performance problems- no?

@xofloppy11xo Lol what a doucher... Obviously it's not as efficient or well laid out as a RWD setup would be, but it is STILL technically true dual exhaust.

To Poster, nice car and nice build would like to see more of it as I'm trying to a similar exhaust setup on my 3400/3500 swapped Beretta... are you on a forum anywhere?
