    I went 2.5" aluminized cat-back into muffler and 2.5" aluminized tailpipe without any kind of tip added for $200 plus tax @ Monro's.

    it's tight. But doable for duals. I have no issues with routing the tail pipes even with resonators on them. Tho I do agree to go 20" body as opposed to 14". The duals set up will always sound a bit harsher than a 2 into 1 or 1 into 1. Since each pipe is banging out 3 cyl. I have an X pipe that does tend to blend the note a bit. I'm tempted to go to this 20" muffler to see if it takes some rasp away on accel.

    price

    I paid $250 for 2.5" Stainless pipe from the cats back. Plus an additional $30 for him to fab up a 3" tip.

    I tried to get a sound clip with my digital camera after the install. Unfortunately the mic on my camera = FAIL.

    They charged me $200 for the original FlowMaster not-so-Super 44 install for 2.5" aluminumized piping from the junction just downstream of the cats, to the new muffler, and again from the muffler back to the SS tip I put on. When I replaced the Flowmaster with the Dynomax, they charged me about $220 to install the bigger muffler (I do not know exactly what piping was replaced that time, though).

    So $190 is a good price, Eric. Good luck!
