Default True Dual opinions

Guys,

Looking at going true duals, but really like my corsa touring muffler (no drone). Is there enough room to put two touring mufflers under my truck?

Has anyone done this?

Thoughts

i think a couple people have thought about it but not sure if anyone has tried it yet...itd be pretty tough to stuff two corsa mufflers under there. ever thought about trying a magnaflow with a couple resonators? i tried three different true dual routes on my sss before i finally gave up and went to a single 3.5" with a 5x11x22" magnaflow and i couldnt be happier with it.

On my last truck, I used a resonator and the 22" magnaflow. It droned pretty good between 1800 - 2000 rpms. Although, this was about 8 years ago.

You'd have to find two used Corsa mufflers, or get a whole new Corsa cat back and cut it up as Corsa doesn't sell mufflers only any more. If you did buy a second cat back and cut it up, you'd have 2 3" in/out mufflers also...

I made a dual exhaust for my truck. Headers--Cats--2.5 pipe--X Pipe--Single Magnaflow dual in dual out muffler. On the freeway it is actually pretty quiet. No drone at all. It has a great sound at idle and at WOT.

I've got true duals. 3" mandral bent all the way from the collector to the single in, single out mufflers in front of the rear axle. I don't think it drones nearly as bad as my old single in dual out flowmaster did. It ran all the way out to tips under the rear bumper.

So, do you guys think there would be enough room to put (2) corsa touring mufflers in?
I know they are pretty big, but I would like to use them if possible.

Its been a while since I've run a corsa, but I'd doubt you'd have room stuffing 2 of them on there, if you did, you'd probably have to get real creative with it. maybe offsetting them to where they were almost one ahead of the other. Just don't know how well it all would work. It would basically be about like trying to stuff2 stock mufflers under there.
