Is there any performance change when going from dual tip to single tip? Is it just preference?
Has anyone tryed the Bombz tunable single exhaust yet? It looks kinda cool.
What's the size of the stock exhaust tip?

in order to gain some hp from the exhaust you'll need to change out all the piping, header back. and you will also need to modify the intake. more flow in and more flow out. hafta get rid of any bottlenecks for the exhaust to help gain hp.

If I install a y pipe will it have to be one that has a CARB number ( I think that's the right term? ) so when I bring my car in for SMOG I won't any crap from the test station?
