We'uns got a new-fangled thingy on this-here board...it's called a "search" button. You might wanna check it out...

Yes, it is possible, but it cuts your clearance somewhat, depending on the diameter of your pipes, how you route them, size of the mufflers, etc...and it is quite difficult to get a shop to route them over the rear axle.

that exhaust is nice but not what i had in mind. i was wanting it with turn downs infront of the axle and was wondering if anyone has done it without getting bigger rims. the exhaust i have now is 3in coming from hooker super comp headers to a single 3 1/2 in pipe under the body over rear axle to my flowmaster, but i want what is described above, curious if it could be done with 3in. pipe to two 40 series flowmasters with turndowns. without bigger rims ofcourse.

I have seen the headers to mufflers to turndowns thing done before and it worked out just fine. The only problem is there is no way to put two flowmaster 40 series mufflers under your car without losing some serious ground clearance. I would suggest using a 4" round muffler such as a dynomax bullet instead, that way you could still go up drive ways.

do a search for No4NJunk he has the exact setup you're describing I do believe.
