Dual Cost?

I've been thinking about Dualling out my 93 Bronco for a while, now I think it's time. I came across a free set of Dynomax mufflers and am going to get the headers I want. What do you guys think the rest would cost me out the door. I'm looking at foregoing the cats and just having the o2 installed and running 2"pipes. What do you guys think of this setup, pro cons.
Thanks

A custom dual 3" exhaust system with turndowns would cost $120 on my 88 Bronco.

Dual 3" is too big unless you have a purpose built race engine.

I think 2 inch which you mentioned is too small and 3 inch is much to big for a bone stock SB. 2 1/4 would be the ideal size.

But as far as dual exhaust goes, DUDE.....DUH.......DUAL EXHAUST IS ALWAYS AWSOME!!!!!!!!

I think dual 2 1/2"would give you maxium use of the headers and still not too big were you would not be using it. I run dual 2 1/2 on my 89 5.0 mustang gt.

I would go with 2 1/4" unless you plan on some big engine mods in the near future.

nogo73, generally Mustangs are run at higher RPMs so a slightly bigger exhaust on your Mustang would provide better results than 2 1/4". With 2 1/2" he probably would pick up noticable power down low but on a stock engine in a heavy truck I think 2 1/4" would be better.
