    Dual Exhaust Pricing and Questions Good or Bad??

    First of all can i see some shots of anyones dual exhaust and under shots if anyone has any. As well as i went to a few shops they said they advise against it cause of the way the under car is set up was anyone had any problems and what size exhaust do u have? I have fount a really high quality custom shops that does anything to any car sky is the limit. Anyway he said he would do a full custom bent dual exhaust from the cats back for 1500.00?? Any suggestions bout that.... I think it seems like a lot but it is gonna be from the cats all the way back custom bending everything... Im not sure but I will prolly be getting a lot of my big mods from him as he seems to be the best on the east coast. Thanks for looking.

    Custom 2.5 Stainless Steel pipes all mandrel bent and tig welded into Magnaflow cats into a Single 3” in Dual out MagnaFlow XL Muffler with dual 4" resonated tips. Had true duals but it caused problems and we went back to a single muffler with dual outs...

    These pics are with my old 3 inch tips and a diffrent Magnaflow.

    Simple solution. A Flowmaster 50 muffler with (as Cyrk said) dual tips. It will take care of your sound and performance needs.

    I had a Morgan-tec muffler and found it had too much resonance.
    I now have a Magnaflow dual in-dual out - WITH resonators on the back end to take out the nasty snappy noise on acceleration.

    Our car does have a short wheel base and very tight space to run pipes, muffler and resonators - but it can be done:




    True, power performance would suggest going with two smaller mufflers on each pipe off the header - but the minimal power gain is not worth the terrible racket 3 cylinders would make out of each tip. The dual in dual out muffler I have has an X-pipe in it to cross over the flow to level out the harmonics - and it was still very loud! I had to add small resonator blanks on each pipe after the muffler to take out the high end snap (or ricey sound as some would say). Right now I am very pleased with the results in sound and I think it will perform better than stock with the future supercharger.


    cheers.
