I did see that Toy4x4Guy did exactly what I wanted to do to his taco, but i think there is more room on the taco. However I am open to suggestions. Thanks
Yeah I did this on my Taco and it did work well. I even flexed the suspension to the max and the leafs never came close to touching the pipes. Not sure on the space on the Xterra though.
I've considered dual exhaust on my Xterra as well. I'd likely go with a dual in dual out 2" Flowmaster. That'll save space on the mufflers. Since the Xterra already has dual cats and dual 02 sensors, do true dual exhaust. A single in dual out muffler is what I had to use on the Tacoma due to it only having one cat and one 02 sensor. You could have both pipes run side by side and come straight out the back tucked close together. Performance would be the same as having them run out each side, and having them run together would have a nice European look.
Just some thoughts.
