If we were running a split manifold and dual turbos then cool. But, we are not so spending money adding useless weight to the car and probalby creating some turbulance in the mix seems foolish. On the same note, running side pipes would hurt ground clearance since the pipes would have to be a lower than the side rails rather than hugging the drive line tunnel. I have run this set up on other cars and it tends to drag on hard cornering. By putting your cash into a well designed set up to make some power you can be cool rather than thinking you'er looking that way.

Ya, let him do what he wants to do with his car. Anything is possible if you have the cash to do it. Also a "True Dual Exhaust" is having two exhaust headers coming from the heads and has separate tubing that goes all the way to the rear independently. Those with "Y" pipes are called dual muffler exhaust system.

it would scrape if you think about it. you would need to go under the driveshaft. my hks is perdy low and i dont even have the car lowered. it would be rice because it has zero function. an M3 and an s2k are NA so they have mufflers that are designed to give backpressure when needed and opens up when needed just like the stock muffler on the evo

Dont do it IMO

Single notch in the bumper. Duals would look a little silly. I'm with the less weight/more power single crowd.

Don't do it! I would list why you should not do it, but everyone has covered the bases. Not to mention the money would definately be spent better some where else.

Single or dual, it doesn't really matter.
The bottom line is reduce your exhaust restriction.
Whether you do dual exhaust or large single exhaust it doesn't matter. The funny thing is here in redneck country when you see and older ca and they say I got a 350 with dual exhaust, and the damn pipes are both only like 2" or less! Oh ya, that's some performance machine you got there, Bubba. My Dodge's 3" single exhaust outflows those dual 2"!

Splitting the exhaust and running duals at the rear diff would cut the exhaust restriction in half after that. At high boost, that could free up some addtional hp, not to mention you turbo would see less backpressure.

really, I thought large displacement V8's always benefit from a more free flowing dual exhaust. Please explain?
