exhaust question?

I went to a shop and told them that I want to run TRUE DUAL from the header to the rear and they said,"...the only legal way is after cat......run a muffler with a dual outlet..." I live in CA and didn't know that you can't have dual cat and mufflers. The only rwason I want true dual is to get LOAD AND DEEP(dual FM original 40). Is there any other way I can get load without true dual?

Even in California, you should be able to run dual cats. The Federal law says that you can't delete them. But adding one more is better, right? As long as it's forward enough to still get hot enough to function correctly. You can get some hi-fow cats from Summit Racing or elsewhere. Then have your rig emissions tested. It'll pass.
