If you want a real easy way to get the dual exhaust from a GT/GTP on your SE (as with me) you should go to a local junkyard.
Ask them if you can go into the yard and have one of their guys cut the exhaust off a GT/GTP and have them cut it about 6-8" toward the engine, after that big U by the back right wheel.
That's what I did. You'll need I think a 2" ID connector to connect it to the stock pipe back there.
MY buddy has a real nice digital cam so I'm going to see if I can snap some shots of my exhaust for all the SE's out there that need a custom dual exhaust.
My junk yard charged me $40 for the pipe which had the mufflers on it still.
