an idea about dual exhaust....

i'm just making this thread for a friend of mine....he wants to go dual and his idea is to put both mufflers near the middle instead of being apart at the sides....what do you guys think?

dont think that you should go with 2 mufflers....it miht mess your backpressure.....so just use 1 muffler and get a Y pipe and bust on 2 tips...and yer set

my friend just told me he wants to customize the piping to make the rear sections go in the middle of the bumper instead of the sides.....
