I assume you can,

since fivelitrekiller had em on his 95 (or 96?) ... It'd require a fair amount of custom work though around the bumper.

Yes you can do it, but if you got money to burn like that, I recommand you to get y-pipe, intake, and some nice exhaust. It would be about same amount of money you'll spend either dual exhaust and expensive custom job or get really HP with y-pipe, intake, exhaust.
But choice is upto, if you want looks go for dual exhaust, but if you want really HP go for y-pipe, exhaust, intake.

You can,and it has been done,

You have to have a costum y-pipe made and shave off your spare tire welle,and then shave a piece off your bumper,so all in all if you found a competent body shop it would cost about $1200-1600 but it would look great!

dual exhuast = ticket

In CA, I know that if your car is not meant to have a dual exhaust, then there is a fat HEARD that is was $400.00 dollars citation for modifying your exhaust system.. Even though it will pass smog! that sux

Yeah, I wanted to make dual exhaust for my car since I'm going more for looks than speed. The only thing that I;m not sure about doing to my car to make the dual exhaust possible is cutting the tire well out. What I f you get a flat tire or something? Other than that, I think dual exhaust will look dope

Argh..dual exhaust...sounds kind of ghetto to me. I personally like the stealth look, and hate gaudy or flashy displays. Oh well, it's your money. In either case, good luck.

Well how much gain would it be worth. Im not gonna do it but i was just wondering. Also take a look under your left bumper. There is a huge black metal box under there. Don't know what it is for but you would have to move that to put the second muffler there.

what you can do is have a pipe run right behind the rear bumper and then make a 90 degree turn to come out of the bumper and just put a tip on it. This is what I was planning to do because you wont be able to see the muffler anyway after it is lowered and has ground effects. plus this will only cost 90 dollars for the piping and 35 for the tip.
