Dual Exhaust Setup?

Has anyone looked into a dual exhaust setup? If so, are there aftermarket rear facia mods you cna add to utilize a dual muffler? I was playing around with the option of changin my muffler, but I don't want the ricer mongo pipe sound coming from my XUV. This thing isn't a Lnacer or a WRX. Its more mature. Besides, I don't like hearing a muffler over my stereo anyway.

I've found some decent setups on line, but haven't gotten under the vehicle to look and see if it could be retrofitted onto the vehicle.

I think maybe one of the hurdles would be a 4-into-2 mid pipe since people are having issues with the mid pipes already.

The only problem with the mid pipe is with the 4-1 headers mounting bracket, but it is an easy fix with a small section of stainless flex pipe. I dule outlet single muffler like the evoX set up would be cool but you are going to have to cut up the rear bumper to make room for the second exiting exhaust tip.

I guess that's nothing some plastidip wouldn't take care of to cover up the cut job....

If my rear bumper ever needed major body work, a second cut out would be added. I think the rear end would look great with a second exhaust tip and I've wanted to do it since day 1, but I refuse to cut into a perfectly good bumper lol

A pair of these could finish up the jagged edge nicely; maybe color matched to the car if fiber is not your thing. When i did my exhaust a week back. I contemplated it. I woudl do a high flow Cat to a y pipe if not changing headers.
But i dont think our OS need that much of a high flow unless running turbo soon. I will definitely keep it in mind if i do the rrm turbo kit for CVT.



Under body of 2013 OEM exhaust setup.


a Ypipe can fit sideways and running dual pipes until rear axel and having the spilt. a resonator will be tricky to fit though if planning on one. a small muffler would fit on either side I believe just before exit.
