NOW, what you are looking for, from what I see here, is just a muffler with two openings, side by side... am I correct?

IMO duals on an I4 are a detriment to both performance and looks. IMO it's not just uncle ben's, it's uncle ben's minute rice.

Looks pretty damn good on an S2000, and I'm sure it helps performance a bit.

if anything, putting dual exhaust on a F22/23 will cause more backpressure because of the turbulance caused with the insertion of a "Y" pipe.

According to my book titled "Honda S2000", engineers determined that dual exhausts were necessary to keep emissions and noise levels down because the car revs so high. It is an LEV.

I'm curious, so I have 2 1/4in piping for my dual setup. How much of a difference in hp, roughly is there between a single exhaust setup, and a dual exhaust setup?
When I'm hitting the 5000-6000RPM range, it does have a lot of pull.
