So there is a local shop that does custom exhaust near me and I was pondering the thought of a custom exhaust. Now I have seen many custom dual exhaust's on our cars but never seen a single exhasut like the WRX type's.

Do you think 1 pipe compared to 2 pipes would make any difference??

Thanks

 

single pipe is and not really the car starts as 2 (down pipe from headers) collects into one then splits into 2 so i dont think it would make a difference unless you change the size of the pipe

 

Why would you even think to go single when we have dual? Dual looks way cleaner on our cars then a single. And no I doubt it would make any difference

 

hAadOokEn's TL

 

^ thats cuz he ran into a problem..


and it looks funky....

besides, there won't be any much benfit/gain from having a single.

unless you're FI and go like.. 3.25" straight or something...

 

Single exhaust FTL.

 

If there were a way to pull our lower valences up like you can on SRT's then I think it would look badass..but the fact that there is gonna be an unfilled hole if you can't, it wouldn't look that great

 

^ +1

 

well thanks for your opinons! I think I am going to stick with the dual exhaust idea now lol

 

Have any preferences for exhaust OP?

 

"exhasut op" ?? whats that? lol sry I am pretty new here

 

do you have any preferance for an exhaust setup original poster.. OP = original poster

 

FI?

less weight?

 

^ idk...

 

That smiley always makes me lol

 

are these Nissan/infinity wheels ?????

 

Either G35c, or TSX wheels it looks like

 

well my set up idea's are prob going to be everything from headers back..so new headers, new j-pipe and prob 3 inch all the way back for pipes..

what yall think?

 

^ new headers come with new j-pipe..

and 3 inch., you'lre gonna loose torque and our cars don't even have torque to start with.

 

Too much and will be so damn loud....like ricer

XS/Ebay Headers, 2.5 high flow cat, 2.5 piping with resonator of your choice to mufflers of your choice. Mandrel also.

 

im just curious would this fit on my 03 tl-s http://www.magnaflowsuperstore.com/4...ter-PRD13.aspx

 

^ i wouldn't.

get Part# MF27403 which is for the CL-S = TL-S

 

hmmmm I guess I woudnt be doing 3 inch then..

I just want more air flow and the car to sound a little more beefy but definitly NOT ricer..eww

 

your car isn't gonna sound beefy with a 3"...


it all depends on what you choose as to mufflers and the piping you mate them too..

wanting more air flow on your current state isn't gonna get you any positive feedbacks.

only way you'd get gains from a 3" is if you're fully built with 3.5 or similar or if your boosted.

 

even then 3" would probably be too much.
most v8 guys dont need more then 3"

 

do you have the link for them cause there not on that site

 

I meant was that I am going to stay away from 3 inch as in go with 2 or 2.5, then new headers and CAI

 

^ 2.5 ftw then to 2.25 at the Y split.

 

if you need a shop reference PM me.

Let me know how it goes.

 

^ PM him, its always good to have shop reference.

i tell all the people around me to go to the one place where they fabbed the ATLP exhausts and stuff.

 

well i pm'ed like you said and he sent me 2 shops so we shall see what comes out with it..

thanks J charged!!

 

i got single pipe exhaust
i find it better. im getting more power then the duals
and honestly, we are not even TRUE duals
we're going from single to a Y-split for dual mufflers
compared to single exhaust, it seems like you are loosing power when splitting at Y-pipe in the end. and pressure is uneven

more airflow on the right side then left
so much for "duals"

if you got the $$$, change your piping size, with a nice axleback

or if you want to go "custom" and do something different,

split into dual pipes from the headers, or cat if your keeping it
therefore your cat/headers, will act like an X-pipe

just as two headers join, and become one pipe, it will turn out into two separate pipes

and single pipe can look good, just have to set it off right
