Default dual exhaust

hey
this winter i want to put duals on my s10. i have a 4 door 95 s10 blazer with 4 doors. i was wondering if this would fit. i would be taking it to a custom exhuast shop. also wat size would sound good. i have the 4.3 L v6 in it and im putting an air intake on it in a few weeks. i was thinking maybe 3 in pipes with 4 in tips?

anyone have a pic of a blazer with duals?

thanks

There is not much need for 3 inch. Maybe about a 2.5

Just for comparison, my ~390chp 350ci Chevelle runs through 2.5" true duals. Your 4.3L at ~190chp shouldn't need more than 2" duals to more than handle the exhaust flow. You won't want to run true duals either or it will sound like two 3 cylinder engines side by side. You will probably want to keep the cat forward and just split it after the cat. While you're at it, you could throw on a performance cat and be even further ahead of the game. Carsound (Magnaflow) makes a nice and reasonably priced aftermarket, high flow catalytic converter in various inlet/outlet sizes.

i was going to put duals on my 01 X, but since it's lowered the guy told me there isnt room for any pipes on the left side of the car.. which once i looked at what he was talking about, its true .. but i plan on fighting the system eventually and pulling it off
