The box in the back is a evap tank. Which also kills the idea of doing a twin exit like a camaro with the muffler right after the axle since its right in that location on a sedan.

There is a possible existing hole to use...but that would require welding a length of wire to a nut to drop it down into position...but thats jist asking for a future rattle headache if it were to come loose.

I can produce an alternative normal style axle-back for a very good price.

Thanks for the correction, guy. I didn't know what it was, and just guessed it was electronics in a plastic box which would have a melting issue if a heat source was close.

The twin tip still has the normal rubber coupling on it, same as the rest of the mounting points, to cushion any motion. The wire loops from the coupling through the little hole. It feels like there is less than a pound of weight on it and only keeps the tip from sagging down.

I believe you could.
It might not generate a large number of sales, but some would sell for sure. I boxed and weighed a stock axle back, and then went to the UPS site to estimate the maximum shipping cost from Coast to Coast. Shipping is about $35 which seems pretty reasonable for a large bulky item.

Found this pic of a really neato Yaris axle back dual exhaust on a Japanese site that might get around the emissions canister issue...
