Default dual exhaust... finally

tomorrow is the big day! i'm finally getting my exhaust DONE! it took me a few weeks of setbacks but i finally have the money! so excited!!!! the final line-up is going to be the u-bend delete, 2.25 exhaust (i wanted to get 2.5 ), and a flowmaster delta 40 with one inlet and to outlets. all said and done it should cost right in the neighborhood of 350 bucks for everything. i hope it sounds good with 2.25" still kinda leary. i'll post pictures of everything tomorrow when i get my monte back

the muffler shop can put the flowmaster delta series where your resinator is and take the second out from it and bring it to the left side. making it look like duals to save some money thats what i did to my silverado one in two out it also aloud me to save alot of money doing that.

i understand that, i did the same on my truck, but there is virtually no room under the montes, which is why most people do 2 mufflers...thats why i dont understand.

I installed 2 mufflers and tips and only paid $290. Plus you still get that old school "Corvette look."

$350 sounds steep for one muffler, but a u-bend and resonator delete and/or cat-back job probably makes sense.

Anyways, 1 ore 2 mufflers most likely doesn't change the sound quality or lack of sound quality on a 6 banger.

Also, I though there was some room under the spare wheel well of my '06 for any kind of setup.
