Off the engine, through seperate headers, through seperate cats, through seperate exhaust.

I think the Dual exhaust is what differentiates this car from others. Personally I think it looks great. Fact is we all own a TL. This car is a modified Acccord V6. To any one that was in the racing scene knows, Accords suck at performance. I remember an HKS turbocharged V6 Accord that did the 60 in like 7.2 seconds. Thats pathetic, even if it was a conservative setting. Look, if you want a fast honda you go for lightweight cars like B18C Integras and civics (swapped engines), or of course S2k or NSX. You don't do that in a freaking TL. Sure, you can put headers, exhuast, intake, whatever to make it a bit faster for fun (i'm probably going to do it myself), but really this is quite a large car and I don't think we should get carried away by 20 or even 50 more pounds. A comparably equipped GSR will smoke us (unless the driver sucks). If you guys really want to save weight why dont you take out the backseats, A/C unit, get super light racing rims? We don't own a race car. I love my car and respect other peoples opinions, but our cars aren't exactly the fastest on the planet. The same goes for IS300s by the way...

The dual exhuast makes the car look good.
Even if its not a true dual the twin tips make the car mine are gold.
