True duals on an '84 Delta 88? Believe it!

Wanted to throw up some pics of my most recent project on my 1984 Delta 88 Royale Brougham (see car in this thread) https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...-lowrider.html

Full stainless steel, true dual-exhaust with X-pipe and cherry bomb vortex mufflers. Check it out:

Corsi Custom Exhaust and Auto Restoration in New Milford, CT.
http://www.corsiautomotive.com/

Roland Corsi (the owner) is a real artist with exhausts. He's this old school bear of a guy who got a deep laugh when he gets excited about working on a project. Roland and I reviewed the whole project before we got started and he took the time to iterate on the design with me. We looked at past systems he has done as well as listened to a few cars he has lying around the shop to talk about the sound I was looking for.

Throughout the two-week process he has been is constant contact sending me pics and updates. You couldn't ask to be in better hands, especially when your handing over your Oldsmobile for a makeover.

I strongly recommend Roland's work to anybody that's looking to sweeten up their ride.

More pics below!

One stainless steel magnaflow X-pipe please! All the joints on the system have ball flairs with 3-point flanges. This allows me to pull off the X-pipe and replace it with an H-pipe if I want. In addition, I can service either muffler without having to remove the x-pipe or tailpipe.

This is the stock bracket for the passenger side tailpipe.

And this is the drivers side mounting hardware. It came out perfect, almost like it was meant to be.

This shot gives you a pretty good view of the entire system. I selected cherry bomb vortex mufflers.

And finally a rear shot of the ride. I picked her up from the shop today and she sounds awesome. The x-pipe really gave the exhaust a rich note and vortex mufflers sounds great. On the highway from 60-100 additional power was noticeable.

Thanks for all the positive feedback on the thread and I'm looking forward to contributing to the community. I've got some other pretty large scale projects coming up that I don't think have been covered by the forum yet.

I haven't seen any threads on the site for installing 4-pump hydraulics into an Oldsmobile yet!
