     Hope I'm not repeating someone's reply but I don't remember seeing
     one.
     
     If you go with the Gibson Dave you muffler choice is make for you.
     You'll get one muffler with a single 3" input and dual 2-1/2" outputs.
      If you want to choose the brand muffler you want you'll need to
     either 1) find which aftermarket systems are available for the Dak, or
     2) pick a muffler and have a competent shop fab up some duals.
     
     I recently got a catalog from Flowtech and posted the available
     sytems, one of which was a dual exit setup. I've heard good things
     from the people I've known that have had Flowtech mufflers but none of
     these purchased "systems". They were all Terminator mufflers in
     existing stock or full custom setups.
     
     The systems available that I'm aware of are Gibson (single and dual),
     Mopar performance (single, louder than Gibson), Flowtech (single,
     dual, and NASCAR side exit), Pacesetter TFX (not sure on systems), and
     Arizona Speed and Performance (single but dual pipes at stock
     location....this one looked expensive).
     
     I'm really surprised Flowmaster or Dynomax have't release something
     yet; unless I just missed 'em somewhere.
     
     Anyway, I hope some of this helped.

For those who have a Gibson exhaust system, or for that matter, any
aftermarket system, what is
the preference of mufflers? I will hopefully be purchasing a Gibson dual
exhaust and am interested
in the muffler preference. Also, with the dual exhaust, is it one muffler or
two?
     
Thanks!!
