dual exhaust

Is it possible to put a dual exhaust on a 2k2? If so does anyone have any pics of it?

WHY? The Max performs quite well without it. And you have to be careful with changing the configuration of your exhaust.

Did you notice, however, that the new 2004 Max has duals?

In addition to routing problems (I think someone either tried this or looked into it and found that the spare tire well needed to go or otherwise have modifications to get the drivers side pipes to route throught the area. Also, look at your rear bumper...it will be lopsided since the OEM exhaust 'cutout' does not exist on the driver's side.

the main problem is that the fuel systems are located right where the exhaust would go through to the bumper. so no go due to fire hazard. it would be possible, i suppose, if you wanted to get rid of the spare tire well, but it would still be a tight squeeze. i have talked to a bunch of different shops, and none of them could come up with a way to do it besided cutting through the tire well.

i think the 2k2 would look more aggressive with a dual exhaust system.
