I don't know of any bolt on duel exhaust kits forsale.

easiest way is to get your self two universal mufflers or one for underbody and have one made at an exhaust shop will probable come out cheaper than any bolt on exhaust.

this is a topic you can easily search on, but to answer your question this is a big project. If you want to do a true dual exhaust then you will need to do what fivelitrekiller did and have the spare tire well cut out and a metal cover put over top.. this will allow room to place the required pipe under that area. And yes, this is expensive and will take time.

I agree he could have searched and it is custom, but it is not expensive. 1/3There2/3ToGo said he paid under $350 for his whole setup and it didn' take that long.

i doubt its functional then beacuse if he just did the rig job where you run a pipe horizontal then 90% of the exhaust just comes out the right side and that really looks ricey in person

If you are going to flame me, get your facts straight and do it to my face.

My dual exhaust(see sig for pic) is functional and the exhaust is split almost evenly through both exits. If you have a problem with the price I paid, here is why it was less that $350:
1)I did not pay labor
2)I got 35% off parts
3)3 I know the people I need to know

Additionaly, I DID NOT just do "the rig job", I used a Camero Flow Master muffler! It has 1 inlet, 2 outlets. Below you will find how I did it:

1)3" pipe from the cat back about 6-8".
2)3" "turbo tube" acting as a resonator.
3)3" pipe back to a Camero Flow Master muffler in the stock position.
4)2.25" pipe(From muffler outlet #1) leading directly out the back of the stock hole in the bumper with a 3.5" tip.
5)2.5" pipe9From muffler outlet #2) leading around the spare tire and out the other side with a 3.5" tip.

***Note the different size pipes used so that flow will eminate almost equally from each side. It also gives each side the same sound. I understand that your jealousy has blinded you to the true ways of exhaust workings, thats ok ~ I forgive you for it.

Oh...one more thing...Next time you flame me, let me know about it and do it to my face you guttless mother fu<ker!

You do not have to cut into the spare tire well. You can run some "euro" mufflers that will fit on the '95 with out cutting. If you dont have any usefull information, dont post here.

Mr Kirk... I'm talking about a DUAL EXHAUST SETUP not a single EXHAUST with duals tips like you have. I'm speaking from experience because I have studied a true dual exhaust setup and I know what i'm talking about. I will concede that they are both about as functional (nothing better than a single). Congratulations on your connections and cheap install.

please note in my first post I used the words "IF he did a rig job" I never said he did because I didn't know anything about his setup then. It was not intended as a flame, that's just what he decided to turn it into. Now if I was to say something like "Dood, your woodgain is showing under your dash kit" that would be a flame...

I never claimed to have a full dual exhaust setup, but I do have dual exhaust. If I only had dual tips ALL MY EXHAUST WOULD COME OUT OF ONE PART OF THE MUFFLER, but it doesnt does it. I have the same setup that some cameros have, does that mean that some camero V8's only have the sigle exhaust?

If my car were as fast as I wanted it to be, why would I be selling it? I'll race you in my new car. I'll spot you the length of your pride before we do. That way, the next time you try to flame someone and they havent even posted on the thread, your pride spot will not exist.

Next time you flame someone, make sure you have a reason. I called you on all parts of your flame and all you have done is say" wanna race?" as if that had ANYTHING to do with the dual exhaust.

Why did you post that whole bit of information that said "If he did a rig job"? It did not further any information to help out this thread starter. All it did was attack my set up. It is true, you had never seen it before and thus my reason for taking offence to it. That would be like me saying "You are running a 14.2XX, which I know is a high 14.2, and you expect to break into the 13's this weekend? Did you install a SC? Cuz if not, it aint gonna happen!"

it's all in how you define "exhaust" all cars only have one exhuast system, some cars have dual exhaust tips, and other may have dual mufflers. Do you see the differnce.. yes a camaro has one exhuast because it only has one pipe into the single muffler. I tend to think that a true dual exhaust has a split from the Cat or headers, but that's only the way I think of it. You are correct in your interpretation, i'm correct in mine. i'm sorry if i hurt your feelings, now can we drop the subject before this thread gets locked. i was not flaming you, i was flaming anybody who just runs a horizontal pipe across the back to a second muffler. I love grudge matches so that's why I offered to race... I love to race with honor on the line at my local track.

I can't believe you two even argue.

And I hope you both know the difference between your exhausts and dual exhaust. In fact I know you do.

Now I see why you said the things you did as you did. But you have got to see my point of view also. I agree, a "true" dual exhaust is either split at the engine or atleast at the cat. On the maxima there isnt much room for that and I am not able to be without my car for a long period of time so I went with a different dual setup. You didnt hurt my feelings, it just made me mad as I have gotten crap for my setup before by some people who later said, after about a month, that they really liked it and were just giving me crap because it was a new idea that no one had tried. I too hate everyone who runs the horizontal pipe to a second muffler ~ thats not even a real way to do it. I'd race you, with my max, but Im too far away. Our tracks out here closed over a month ago You'd spank me though, but I'd still run ya My next ride is a '95 TSI AWD Talon running a 13.2 I also prefer running on the track to the strip, makes sure everything is equal.

so Clee, when were you planning on telling us about your RWD conversion?



BTW, not sure if anyone mentioned this yet about the dual exhausts, be prepared for a LOT of noise. You will sound like a 5.0 stang with it's exhaust cut from the cat. back. lol

Sure it looks good, more symmetrical and all, but it's not worth it in my opinion.
Why don't you just attach a 2nd exhaust tip on the other side

What the hell are you talking about? "Mine is more symetrical" Are you blind? The semi-circle muffler cut-outs, the mufflers themselves, and the piping is in perfect symetry! Please don't shaft a guy's car untill you're sure of what you're talking about.

you dont need to cut the spare tire well at all......i have dual exhaust on my car and i did all the work with my uncle and we did not need to cut the spare tire well at all......the hardest part is cutting your bumper so the pipe fits so its stock as the right side is....

And yes, this is expensive and will take time.

Look at the picture of the back of his car. Then look at the picture of the back of my car. Can you honestly tell me his looks more symetrical? To me it looks like the hole on the left side is 3" or so too far to the left. I took 25 measurements to ensure that mine is symetrical. I have only seen one pic of his car and it is my opinion that it is not symetrical. Just look at it.

Clee ~ I posted the sig again so that the pic of my duals would be right below the attached pic of the other guys duals. It was to support my claim that they are more symetrical. No hard feelings, but its good to know I didnt post anything bad, another moderator was saying I always do.
