You might want to tweak the design so the "blue" tips are centered in the stock openings. There have been a couple of examples of folks totally filling the openings in the SVX's rear bumper only to find that they start melting the bumper.

5mt's are theoretically going to be quicker in the 1/4 than a 6spd. However, you start to make more power than stock and you will need to have the beefiness of a 6mt. Now.... about the exhaust.

If you wanted a angled up drift tip than you should have gotten an rx-7 or a supra. First of all I have seen SVX's with one single muffler off to the side and it is terrible looking. Second. You will have three options if you do that style muffler: option A hack your bumper apart and look like a total redneck, option B don't hack you bumper apart simply cut out below one of the openings and run your muffler through there, option C wedge the ricer muffler in the existing hole and watch the bumper melt like cheese in a microwave.

You will hate the day you were born if you use that muffler and anything close to that exhaust layout. You will have resonance like crazy and your exhaust note will sound like crap at every rpm range. Do not take any of this to heart I am just trying to help you not make any mistakes (i.e. lose $$$)

A good set up would be to run 1 7/8" primaries off of the stock manifolds put an 02 sensor in each primary. Put a 2" single-in/ single-out magnaflo cat on each primary. Join the two primaries with a Y pipe (dual 2"/ single 2.5") and put your third O2 sensor there. Run the 2.5" pipe back into Aero resonator and then to a single in dual out magnaflow muffler with a tip going to each stock location. I have heard MANY different different exhausts on 100% stock SVX's, N/A modded SVX's, and supercharged SVX's and believe me you do not want to do the one you drew out.

ok then i wont go with a can muffler, but the whole point of the can style muffler is that i want huge round tips going out the back, so should i go with a super 44 and put 2 huge disel tips coming out the back... i wanna see like 4-5 inch tips

It's just the stock exhaust, it splits into a "y" at the end and goes to the two mufflers. My mom compares the sound to her old '72 v8 Charger she had

I also scared a 5.0 Mustang with it once. It's loud but it doesnt get into the cabin that bad.

If you remove the front cats, use a 2-into-1 design, and run equal length primaries, you'll get a nasty loud resonance from around 2500-3300 rpm. I tried several different arrangements of resonators, and nothing stopped it completely.

Running the unequal length primaries will kill the resonance, and it will give a more blatty exhaust note. Its not going to sound like an STi though. The EG33 has two more cylinders and a 120 deg separation.
