Smile Same question different day

Dual exhaust or not? Everyone has there own opinion. Right now I have LT's and o/r y but I love the sound of an x-pipe with dual dynomax ultraflos. I have read where you lose low end from getting rid of the y pipe. I'm putting in my circle d 3400-3600 converter this week and was wondering if y'all thought the converter would help with the low end lost and the dials would then maybe pick up a little hp up top. It sounds ok now but always wanting something better. All comments welcome. thanks.

With your setup, you should be fine with 2.5" duals with a cross-over pipe.

From the dyno tests I've seen, an X-pipe really boosts the midrange over a true dual. Quiets it down a bit too.
