Is this dual Gibson just for '97's? If there is one for pre '97's I'd
like to get it. I'm un-decided on the single Gibson because I really
want to have dual pipes. I think the Gibson will give the best
performance gains because it has been designed for the Dakota. A dual
setup from a muffler shop is kinda like a shot in the dark, they fab it
up, make it look nice but you may be left with not enough back
pressure. I just feel better with a system that was designed on paper
to perform than one that was fabricated in a garage to fit nice. But
for the price, I don't think you would notice any big differences
between the two unless the dual was done REALLY bad. I think either one
would be worth the money though.
