Default exhaust in the works

I plan on installing a true dual exhaust on the car this weekend.

Just ordered a Magnaflow Muffler from Ebay:

Also ordered a 2.5'' X-pipe off Ebay.

My plan is to remove the 2 aftercats and the stock Y-pipe, and in their place, mount the X. Then route 2 2.5'' pipes into the muffler. Planning on welding the stock tips back on to the Magnaflow, but because of the muffler outlet spacing and the bodywork around the muffler, I might end up mounting them vertically instead of horizontally. Should look pretty unique.
Only difficulties will be in installling a mounting bracket for the 2 pipes, but some spot welding should take care of that.

Overall cost= 92$+54$+ about $200 for labor and pipe bending. $350 total isn't too shabby.

Should have pics and video up by Sunday if the parts arrive on time.
