Question Opinions on True Dual exhaust or Dual Cutouts

Hey everyone im still deciding on my exhaust set up for next year.
it will either be

1. true duals with a x pipe of my jet hot long tubes with either bullit mufflers or hollywoods into turndowns before the rear axle. all 3 inch and all stainless. with fake cats as well, jus the cat casings on a straight pipe. probably from laneswheels.com or Dr. gas because I dont trust my local shops to do it right.

OR,


2. dual cut outs off the lts with a custom y pipe into a either bullit or hollywood and back to a custom loud mouth set up with B B tri flow tips. again all 3 inch and all stainless. this is the most expensive of the two and would look the best.

THANKS GUYS

John first off I dont know how much power you plan on having but 3" duals can support ALOT of power. Its equal to more than one 4" pipe. Im not talking about the whole loss of backpressure thing, just that youll have way to much flow for a presumpt stock car. If it will be decently modded than it wont be a problem.

The duals will be more expensive, the cutouts will be louder. You will loose some ground clearence with the duals but at the same time you will save weight. You might also have a hard time finding room to put dual cats also...

Also there is no need for stainless. Its heavier, and way more expensive. Rust has never been a problem with my exhaust set ups here in buffalo and they have all been plain steel.

Yea if you go with a true dual set-up, I'd advise 2.5" piping instead of 3".....
