True dual exhaust, no cats, this kit, is it possible?!?!

I heard its nearly impossible to run true dual exhuast on 3rd gen camaros. What about this kit:

(it's the one for 219.95, part #SUM-CBJJ105)

I have an 84 z28, I wouldn’t run cats becuase I don’t have to get emissions checked. Any ideas if this setup would work for true dual exhuast (mufflers exiting in front of rear tires) and how power should I expect out of dual exhuast, headers, no cats, and turbo mufflers? I know its not the most expensive or best kit but I don’t care.

thanks,
Sage

You've misunderstood. It's just nearly impossible and maintain stock ground clearance. I you don't mind loosing a couple of inches it's no problem.

"Nearly" is the key word here:

To what end, would be my question. I have yet to see a setup where it has a good X pipe and doesn't compromise ground clearence. I ran for years with a good 3 in exhaust and haven't noticed anything in gains after removing the exhaust system after the collectors. I took it to a track and ran a few rounds with the exhaust intact and a few with the exhaust disconnected. No significant difference.
