I'll have to take pics of this when I get mine completed. Hopefully it'll be easy to create and only one try. It really shouldn't be more than $200 to have an exhaust shop complete this.

Actual PIC of the OE set-up from underneath the car (was trying to replicate the OE set up in the top drawing above):


Gotcha. I thought of that, but then he mentioned that the front DP is ~13-15 inches longer than the other, so I didn't see how to add that full length back in the position you drew up. But geez, if all it takes is a few bends and a res delete, I'd rather go that route anyways. But if full equal length is needed, I'm happy to go single exit. I'm such a sucker for the huge N1 style fartcans anyways. Don't care what people think of it if it'll sound anything like the glorious RB
