i think most dual exhausts aren't even that great unless it's a true dual from the headers back. otherwise, it's just another cause of turbulence at the y-pipe where the two branch off.. just my $0.02

dual exhaust is will rob you of power on ANY inline engine. Go find a car with a dual exhaust and an inline engine, put your hand over one of the tail pipes, you will feel it pulling your hand in, it does the same thing with air. One of Archimedes principals says that if you something flowing fast through a tube, and there is a hole in the tube it will actually suck air into the tube and raise pressure. The second exhaust is just an extension of the whole in the tube sucking air into the primary one.
Cars that come with it stock are high in flowing resistance, so they can build pressure on each one and make it work. But after market systems rarely have this kind of R&D backing them.

VERY few cars left have true duals from the headers back.

I did see one civic that rightfully had a dual system, it had a dual parallel turbos. I didn't ask why he put them in parallel, well I though about asking but then I saw the chrome radiator and just left and luaghed at him.

just weld tips across ur back bumper. Also, 1 thing ive always wondered is i wonder how dual tips coming out of the middle of the bumper would look. The new Echo's have this exhaust as a TRD dealer option, and it looks sexy on it. Just got me thinking of how it would look on a civic with a custom rear lip, something small with a hole in the middle for pipes...
Im digin the new echo's if they werent so slow...

Rep Power: 297 my friend got dual exausts. he got a bodykit for free, only problem was that it had 2 spaces for dual exausts, so he got them to fill it out. it looks pretty good. it does not add performance though.
