Okay guys I am posting for one of my friends who has a 2002 accord.. He has dual generic no name mufflers with 2 1/4 piping. He complains he isn't getting enough air flow. His new idea is to get single muffler instead of dual. He wants to get single muffler with 2 1/2 piping all the way. Is that more airflow for him and would it cause the car to be louder in any way?

 

to my knowledge, the more air flowing through the muffler at once will make it louder

 

So its better to get Single tip and ditch the dual tip mufflers?

 

Dual exhaust on a 4 cylinder does nothing except add weight. Ditch the dual mufflers and go with a single muffler if its a 4 banger, if its a 6cylinder then I would go header to straight pipe to each their own muffler.

 

its a 6 cylinder

Then go from header to straight pipe to muffler on each side.

Instead of the stock setup which is like this:

If that makes sense.

Yea the 6 cyl isnt a true dual exhaust, most cars aren't. There should be a way to do 2 pipes, go to an exhaust shop and see what they can do, they'll be able to make you a custom setup.

 

Hes asking if its going to be loud and if he will get alot of air flow?

 

Loud=air flow pretty much.

What he can do though is put on a good 14" or 18" resonator past teh cat on each pipe, and a straight through muffler, and it should keep it relatively quiet. Without a resonator its raspy and annoying...

 

How much is that going to cost? for piping on each header?
