Default Crossover straight pipes

Searched with no good results. I'm looking to run straight pipes with a crossover design. Anyone try this? I want to run the pipe straight from the turbo to the opposite side. See below for the general idea. Any thoughts or experiences?

Well, I'm assuming because it's a "Generation 1" it had to be improved. Drone? Too loud?

I ran str8 pipes for 2 weeks. Pretty loud.
An example : i'm on the hwy (405 S. For the LA guys). My brother who is in his own car about 4-6 Cars behind can hear the car. He thinks its exotic because the turbos + WGs + the noise pollution gets him going.
But in the car, I can't even hear the radio.
So drone....YES.
Hope this helps.

if you did an X pipe it would eliminate some of the drone but if your going straight pipes u dont really care about drone cause your as loud as it gets.

Why the extra piping to the opposite side? and not straight out the back?

I'm wanting to tweak the sound slightly. I figure the longer the pipe, the quieter it will be.
