yea but did he have tips. remember something like echo tips make stuff louder. my bad i did not even think about that in my other post i was thinking of my truck. first it was ran to the back and dumped then dumped befor the axle. so the diffrence going from tips to dumps would prob be quieter.

So what are you saying Ken? Dump or not? You say dump it but you also lost power. :p
OK I guess my first post was a little confuseing
When I originally put on the new exhaust it was dumped before the axle
After a few weeks, I ran the pipes over the axle and dumped under the bumper. Thats when I lost power and changed the sound.
Took that off and re-dumped them before the axle again.
So I say dump them right out of the mufflers before the axle.

Ok that makes sense now. I was just curious if you guys thought my current would more restrictive in a bad way as opposed to dumping the exhaust just after the axle.

In a word... YES. Especially if you are using crush bends over the axle.
