I've been doing a lot of searching on dual exhaust setups. One thing that came to mind is power loss. I currently have a custom made b-pipe and Greddy muffler. However, I'm taking my car to the bodyshop today. They said they wouldn't be able to make another cut out on the bumper for a dual exhaust (my muffler has a hole in it from when the hanger ripped of in a rear-end collision). If I were to get them to do it and I had a shop make a 80 series flowmaster exhaust with one muffler and two outlets, would I experience any loss of power from what I have now? I don't really notice any power loss attributed to the hole in the muffler but I did get an 0302 code for exhaust leak that went away. The car still performs like a champ despite this.

 

loses will be minimal and u wont feel anything......its a waste of money if u ask me

 

It's really for the looks. Considering that the insurance company will help fix my exhuast, I was thinking about going this route.

 

i like your car it's nice.

 

just stay with the single setup dude. looks nicer, dual exhaust on our car dosnt really look all that great if u ask me. and don kno if u might loose power. Depends on the size of tubing you use. might have to go wtih like 2" or something. dual exhaust 2.5 seems a bit too much flow will kill your bottom end.

 

Thanks guys. I think I may just stick with the single exhuast.

 

nice car bro....love to see other GXE autos out there looking good.

 

great decision

 

Yeah if you are auto, you will probably feel the lag with a dual setup.

 

I cant make threads yet, so I just wanna ask this little question, how does a flowmaster sound on a maxima?? I been thinkin about gettin one cause I want like a deep sound, and not a loud annoyin bees flyin around

 

^^no need to make a new thread, look at the thread at the top of the page that says sticky in front of it
