What options are out there for true duals?

Which companies make them and what kinda prices are we looking at with them? Do they flow better then a Hooker catback?

Found what I was looking for question now is this system for $419.99 going to flow any better then a Hooker catback for $274? The only future mods I am looking at are Pacesetter LT with either one of these catbacks + a slightly bigger cam sometime next year. Are the TD worth $150 more? And are those bullet mufflers emissions legal in PA?

true duals have more under the curve gains.
only thing bad about above duals is they are dumped underneath the car.
i had a set up like that on a car i owned. you get to smell fumes and its loud.

Also not sure if I'm gonna like the empty exhaust trays in the back of my TA with the TD, you do smell fumes though in the car from them dumping before the axle?

also for pa inspection the exhaust has to come to the outside of the body, so dumps are a no no.

Fguy----Thanks! That pretty much seals it for me, Hooker catback it is!

Not all TD's that are dumped are real loud or have that gas smell in the car, I have some duals built by Lane's in Dallas with the Flo-Pro Twisters and the sound is less than my old catback was and as I said there isn't any noticeable gas smell in the car, which maybe due to the way the tips angle or the Predator tune I have not sure which one it is. About the open tip holes just do like I have done and hang a pair of tails solid mounted.

I've been toying around with the idea myself, but I want these mufflers

Those are the places I've found that do True Duals, but if I can figure out a way to make the hooker aerochamber mufflers fit I'd do that and have tips out the back rather than have dumps
