Norcal SS...have you seen anyone install the Gibson Split Rear Cat Back Kit ? I'm old school and really like the look of exhaust exiting right behind each rear wheel well to the side. The Gibson kit exits their muffler with 2:2 1/4" pipes...that exit with a single on both sides of the vehicle. I've seen it for less than $600. https://www.realtruck.com/gibson-exhaust-systems/R182798P2016Y244MA.html Stainless T304 mandrel bends.

Your thoughts ?

I was thinking of this as well--duals would look good. And 2@2-1/4" have greater area than 1@3". But when searching around some said the quality wasn't great...? Be interested to hear from someone who actually installed them!

Any other mods and you notice any performance gains?

Hennessey Motorsports does a complete package at 3: different power levels. http://www.hennesseyperformance.com...adillac-escalade-hpe650-supercharged-upgrade/

They offer a 3 year 36K mile warranty with their deal. They must be strong because they do quite a few upgrades for Sewell Cadillac/Chevy/GMC in Texas as well as Ed Morse in Florida.

Be prepared however to lay down the long green and wait 6~8 weeks for you vehicle. This is very popular around the country and John Hennessey is VERY busy.
