Well... being a cheap ass could cause you to spend more money... "mod cheap, mod twice."

I'll stop discouraging you now, but there are reasons the guys around here are going to point you toward a high dollar ceramic coated header and not pointing everyone towards pacesetters... fit, finish, and quality.

the TSP true duals are a pretty sweet setup, but i think after teh shipping, you can get the exact same setup for about the same price locally at A1 or a shop like rev extreme. its just x pipe with dynomax bullet mufflers.

for headers, you get what you pay for. cheap coating and quality control. the cheapest i will go is ceramic coated hookers.

lol bassani has a true duals setup to the back.

its kinda pricy.

btw they only way to get true duals over the axle is with the panhard bar relocated from BMR. they have one on their website.

IMO not worth it. guys have gone into the 9s with single intermediate pipe.

yep, in my suspension quest i went to bmr and saw that same pic you are speaking of.

here, exactly half way down the page

its the panhard rod relocating kit, so add about 220 to that price if thats what you want to do with the true duals

i was also looking into getting some Pacesetter LTs and a similar setup. what kind of power was this car putting out that blew a hole in the welds?

power levels are irrelevent in blowing welds. its the getting hot, then cold when a poor weld is present that breaks the metal.
