hey guys . iv asked on here about what kind of exhust to go with but now with the new body kit im getting i could put a dual exhust back there if there is room .
would it be an advantage to get a dual exhaust or keep it single .
i have not seen anyone with a dual exhuat on a si yet .

thanks for any info

 

There is no reason to get a dual exhaust, it will just add weight

 

Why stop at 2?...Why not get 4?....I say do it!.....And have them angled towards each other rather than apart....

 

hmm i did noit think of the weight thing (good point ) . i thought it would give me more power vs the weight gain . what what be a good alpication for a dual system ?

 

Dual Mugen Twinloops....Do it!......do it.......Do it!!!!!

A car with more than one header

 

i like borla's dual-tip system. some guys on k-series have it and looks real nice i think. it's really personal opinion.

I don't think he's talking about dual-tip systems, since the stock muffler is dual tip

 

Dude.....Why in the world would you want a DUAL Exhaust?????


You are going to lose power


But hey its your ride.

yup

 

know what's really funny. i once saw a prelude with not dual exhausts, but quad exhaust hehehehe. one pipe for each cylinder.

 

I agree, a dual exhuast system in the si would result in a decrease in hp on the whole power band. You need back presure for the low and mid range torque.

 

Do it!!...just do it!!....It's JDM to have dual exhaust now I heard.....so do it!

nah thats so played out. He needs 427 corvette stingray sidepipes or maybe some semi-truck smoke stacks.

Teh most JDM is this though

 

damm....that's pretty sweet....what part of japan was that taken from?...Cuz that's mad jdm.....

 

Not sure what part of Japan they are from, confusedJDMvwGTI took the pic.

 

you have 4 cylinders, and only 1 header. Do not get a dual exhaust, it will sound like **** and will not yield good performance, maybe even less than stock. Get a good single exhaust system.

 

hey guys i appretiate all the info , i will do that then . just single .

i guess some cars like the sunfire has motor made for dual exhaust then lol.

thanks again .

 

oh and i read an artical in a import magazine . they did a test on the si with only a air intake and a good exhuast . ( hks or somthing of that quality ) they said the ehust only gave the car 1 hp !!! . the intake gave like 4 or 5 . i will have to find the article agin now lol . for 500-700 i want more than 1 hp gain lol .

That may be true for peak power, but what did it look like under that? If it gives 5-10 ft-lbs in the midband that would be great.

 

if i was you i'd go with skunk2(i have it and love it) or an hks exhaust.... no dual, but good luck with what ever u do...

You have alot to learn grasshopper Unfortunatley, function follows form on the design of the sunfire and many other cars with inline motors.

 

mugen's k20A honda fit has dual exhausts... so does an s2000 just some food for thought..

 

I'm pretty sure both of those cars breath better than the K20A3.

As for what to get I recommend a nice 2.25 midpipe without a resonator and MAYBE a borla or magnaflow muffler.

I did the 2.25 and kept the stock muffler. I still have it to this day.

Why not four??????
