Well, in referance to the muffler thing....
If you go to a real muffler shop they can put any muffler on any vehicle any
way you want it... there just has to be a really good guy there!

Ahh..I see :)
Well, I simply went to the Flowmaster site and looked at the application
page (its in .pdf format). There is a listing for the Dakota. I don't know
if that chart will help you or not, but I would "assume" that if they
recommend a particular 50 series for the Dak, then it must fit.
The site also provides the exact outer dimensions of the muffler, so you can
get an idea of how it would fit with your current setup.
..by the way....the 50 is what I have now. Obviously with a single outlet
you won't get the sound.....but you may well get a bit more performance than
the nominal increase I got.....I calculated (after the install) that a
single outlet actually would have provided a bit higher flow rate than the
dual outlet....go figure :( ...I believe Bernd compared the two setups and
his 'real' data suggested the same.
...the way I see it...my V10..umm I mean V6 will only get 'so' fast....so I
might as well throw my attention into the asthetics :)
