so wouldn't a single exit exhaust provide better performance than a double exit one?

...speaking from a performance standpoint

i can't believe no one went this route yet after so many years.

maybe because it wont look as good.

...still curious though.

Default What do you mean "won't look good"?

Default i've been thinking about it...

but given that i don't have huge engine mods, it doesn't seem worth it. moreover, because there are very few on this board with really heavy performance mods, the idea of losing the dual tip design b/c of performance concerns is not really discussed...

Default hottub did a single outlet, and he has apr stg3 ... iirc

i do however personally think that a single outlet makes the rear look unbalanced.

Default not much...

given that my car doesn't spend very much time at the track (yet), it's really not worth it to me.

if i ever have enough engine mods to justify a system like this, i have a solution to the "unbalanced" look of the single-tip system.
