Does this look good? Twin Exhausts

Post by FtoSam »

Got these done a while ago but i'm really interested to see what other ppl think of them. I was trying to get something meaty but not like a couple of Milo Tins.

Ive always liked the look of the dual exhausts.

Question: Did you have to cut a hole in the other side of your bumper for the second pipe or have you filled in the hole in the drivers side or what have you done (bit hard to see from the pic?

    yeah, im gonna haveta get twin exhausts done eventually. the dude who owned my car before me had his exhaust replaced but could only find left hand side exhausts. as a result he cut a hole out of the rear end and left the orignal space for the exhaust as is. it sorta looks fairly shabby. twins will go nice there.

    Question, if i were to get a Y bend from the current exhaust so that a twin is used. Is there any issue with flow dynamics in the exhaust system? will i get a crap sound out of the current oversized exhaust ? My current muffler looks similar to the one in the picture shown.

    i have a stock looking tail pipe...however I have lifted it higher than stock to fit perfectly within the cut-out of the rear bumber...I like it, it always suprises ppl when I pump it to 4k + it def. doesn't sound stock...:P

    Yes i did have to get another cutout. but the body shop i went to did it PERFECT!.. i was so happy. only $25. I'll take some pics of the setup underneath. For those of you coming on the Brissy Cruise.. You can tell me if you like the sound of it as much as i do. I think it cost me as follows:
    1x Cutout = $25
    2x Short Cannons = $220 (Had to be short to fit in.)
    Labour + Joining pieces = $70
    not bad for $315...

    And yeh i've always thought of going Dual Twin Exhausts. Similair to stock (each is ofset) but slightly thicker in diam.

    The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.

    Cannons were on special at autobarn and my local panel beater did the bodykit and my local exhaust bloke did the piping.Sounds good.

    even for the looks i'll assume a twin would be better then standard anyway :o
