Just got my DUAL EXHAUST! PICS!!

Well i had to cut out the spare tire space, but other than that i love my new dual 4" pipes. It sounds and feels about the same as before, but i think it looks great. Tell me what you think. The duals are the last 4 pics of my album.

Looks great!

How hard was the install? How long did it take?

Would you be willing to write up install instructions (w/ pics)?

If there's no loss in backpressure, I would like to do this mod.

Thanks!

dust, i got it installed at midas, so i can't really give instructions. they just redid my catback into a Y shape. it doesn't feel like i lost any back pressure. feels exactly the same.

97acura, they are focuz 4" mufflers off ebay. I think it's a little louder, but my friends say its WAY louder. Sounds great tho.

blacura, the splitters do look alot better in person than the pics, certain angles look better than others. And the exhaust is pretty damn loud.

thanks for the positive responces!

block man, did you buy the mufflers there or soemwhere else? cause i wanna buy a universal online and get it welded on somewhere, but i heard some shops wont weld on mufflers if they dont sell it to you.

can you take some pics from teh side of the car close to ground level so i can see the splitters at that angle. man your car is TITE

edit: fock, i cant read! you got them off ebay, did midas give you any hell?

Blacura, midas was really cool about it. At first i just had a regular catback that they did for $150 (like 7 months ago). They added the dual for another $130 today. I'll get some more pics of the splitters in a few days after i install my ww rear lip and cf eyelids that i also picked up today.

Ish, if you count the entire install for both mufflers it was $280 with piping and everything. The mufflers were $50 each, so everything was $380. Not bad considering a regular namebrand exhaust costs like $500. My friend cut out my tire space with an electric saw.

Yea, I know someone around here with a dual setup that looks JUTS like that. He has a 3.0 and his exhaust sounds Siiickkk....its really really low and mean sounding. How does your sound blo2ck?

I like the look of the dual pipes! Did you guys cut the notch in the bumper or did you have the shop do it?

30CLstyle: Nice system set-up. I want to get somethings similar but I also want to have the screen capable to have Navigation also.

380 for the whole setup is pretty good. did you do that lower grill by yourself and where you them eyebrows or are they just vinyl?
nevermind i just read another thread where you said you got them off of a 98-02 accord. so how did you trim off 3 inches anyway?

30CLstyle, i like the one piece splitter too, i just don't like the wire stabilizers that hold it up. Thats why i got 2 piece ones. I got my splitters for almost nothing from a friend, so i can't complain.

melo, i had the muffler shop cut the little gap. They did a better job than i thought. i got the type-w rear lip anyway so it'll cover that up. it's gonna be hard to cut the lip and make two spots for the pipes tp exit.

ish, i had the shop trim the eyebrows with a drumel saw or something, but they did it perfect.
