white- 2002 TT Camaro
My Home made true dual exhaust on my 02 Camaro wit
I made my own True Dual exhaust for my 403 cid APS twin car
T 304 stainless 3 inch tubing Tigged up W/O mufflers but I will probaly add them later as it is still a little loud for my taste right now. The system comes out in 3 sections + the tail pipes split in 2 so I can drop the tranny pretty easy
The longer than normal X pipe is 4 inch oval that fits aound the Spohn Torque arm mount that is straight and made for the stock or kooks exhaust. the car also has both front and rear Driveshaft safety loops which made it quite a bit harder to run the dual 3" tubing.
(the green paint is where my 5 year helped me one night:bang

You learn pretty fast with the welder. I did custom TD's on mine too and it took many hours! Originally Posted by Darren P

Nice Darren! saw your post on tech.
From now on out then, there isn't much reason for you to be buying anything but the turbo and manifolds

I just noticed that you cut your subframe connectors! Are they welded in?

I am not sure if you are worried about it, or if you can even cut out the welds, but UMI's 3 point subframe connectors will clear your exhaust. Originally Posted by Darren P

Looks very nice. I didn't think dual 3" would fit over a 9"?
