the more "singles" you have in there is the less your going to hear the cylinders firing. the more "dual" you have in the system the more you will hear the cylinders firing. the shorter the system the louder it is.

if you want it loud delete your cats.

 

I'll keep that in mind, thanks man. I think what I really want to do is a single in/dual out same-side exit behind the rear tire. I love the look.

 

go big do it dual the whole way out, it sounds like it actually has something under the hood, if your anything like me your gonna be spending alot of money, just hvae it done the right way the first time.

 

1. Single pipe or dual pipe. A single pipe system will usually weigh less, cost less, and be simpler to install than a dual pipe exhaust system. The argument in favor of the dual system is that the dual pipe exhaust is easier to mount closer to the underside of the car and is less likely to hang down and look unsightly. The smaller diameter dual pipe mufflers are easier to conceal and usually do a better job than the larger single pipe muffler. I like the sound quality of dual pipes vs. single pipe systems, but that is a personal subjective opinion only. Dyno testing I've done show that both single pipes and dual pipes with equivalent flow capacities will make equal top end power. However, the dual pipe system makes more torque below 5500 rpm.

 

Haha. Believe me man, if I had the money, I wouldn't hesitate one bit to install true duals. The problem is that I'm a full time student only working three days a week with a $338/month car payment. I still have plenty of time to tinker with different ideas though. I probably won't have the money to redo my exhaust until summer. In any case, I really do appreciate the feedback. I take just about anything into consideration!

 

Good luck
