I'll be keeping secondary CATs for emission checks as I'm going decat DPs but will look to replace OE centre box / H pipe with two separate mufflers before adding the equalizing length.

Just considering options for rear box.
If left unmerged, may as well keep the lengths as is. There won't be a difference in tone without an equal length merge.

But if you're going with 2 mufflers, just stick with my design and make the return of the U bend earlier, and make another 90 degree pipe bend at the center of the car. Then split with T pipe, attach the mufflers, and route both sides out the back. With a dual exit you don't need as big of mufflers anyways.
