Oddysey and Sandman,
Those duals sound great.
I have a Borla single exhaust installed, and I understand it is the same as the FRPP?
In any case, if I want a slightly louder and more aggressive sound, will going dual give me this?
Thanks for a great thread!

I really need to find some time to put up another video.. they have changed a little since that day.
It's actually hard for me to describe the way these sound.. but aggressive is definitely a word I would use. They sound very "open" at cruse with a lot of personality. When I say open.. I don't mean open like no muffler.. just free flowing.
The difference between the way a dual sounds and a single.. is basically the difference between listening to music with one speaker and then listening to the same song in stereo. Duals are not necessarily louder.. just more complex.. richer.
I defiantly feel a difference in power on the highway too.

I love hearing explinations of these mufflers... and knowing that mine will be here any day now. 
Give me more details.  If you get a chance, I wouldn't mind hearing them with some miles on them.

Just got my kit on, sounds great. But, the instructions for the install SUCK. Worst instructions I have ever seen, ever. And I like little touches like two extra clamps so you are never sure which clamps to use where. And instructions that tell you to mount the two driver side muffler support brackets, but then only supply two bolts to do this instead of the required four (the packing sheet even says two hangers, two bolts.... DUH.... two bolts each means four bolts needed, morons).

The part I was worried about most was cutting the Y-pipe, but believe it or not that seems to be one of the easier parts. And yea I was confused about the clamps too, I ended up using the one that came with the x-pipe because it seems to fit the pipes better and that is why they probably put them in the box.
And you are right Sandman, the exhaust sounds amazing now that it is broke in, hard to explain but it just sounds right for a V6. I don't think you could get a better sound without going to a V8.

Oddysey, thanks for all of the time you took with this thread! Your duals sound fantastic. I just ordered my own set, based off of this thread. Can't wait to get them on!!

If I ever go dual, which I'm certain I will, the FRPP will be the choice.
This thread has been influential in this decision.
Thanks Oddysey and Sandman.

Just so everyone out there that buys this kit and installs it themselves. The kit only comes with 2 hanger bolts, but you'll need 4 for the 2 new hangers. Take the bolts from the front stock hanger that you will not use with the kit mufflers. Voila! There's your extra bolts! I hope everyone out there that put on an aftermarket single before going duals, saved their hardware.

Well, all I have for a digital video camera is my digital photo camera, and it's pretty lame at video.

I already didn't want to punch it, but my girlfriend is the one who has the camera so I have to do with what I got.
