Default Dual Exhaust

i have a 2002 I-4 accord. i got the I-4 becuase of the manual transmission. i also heard that the I-4 has alot more potential than the v6. is that true? also, i wanna convert my exhausts to dual cuase i'm going for show. how would i do this? what does the undercarriage look like? what i'm saying is...is that do i need to get custom pipes or can i get a v6 exhaust and bolt that on.

You are a dumbass, for one you've got two different headers (3 cylinders each not 4) going to a Y pipe. Why show it when you obviously don't know **** about it?

no, you are the dumb ***, he is asking if you can bolt up a cat back from a V6 accord, not the ******* header/s. obviously the header is ******* impossible.

as far as just getting a cat back exhaust man, i dont know if it will bolt up, if you take it to a muffler/exhaust shop they can custom do it for you, weld in a Y pipe, and split the exhaust to each side of the car. ive seen it done.

personally, even if i was going for show i wouldnt do dual exhaust, unless of course i had the V6 which called for it. waste of money

Why get dual exhaust? All it is is more weight and more restriction due to the Y bends. A larger diameter single pipe will do the job without being ricey and dumb.

The I4 has more potential because the AV6 isnt a popular platform, but i'd take a new V6 coupe over almost anything

Nope....dumbass meter is all at your end.

1. body kits are bad.
2. Youre basing a performance aspect of your car based on how it looks in conjunction with a body kit.
3. You bought a dual exhaust bodykit for a car with only one pipe.

Explain to me....what is wrong with this....

I already told you the real reasons why it's bad...but go ahead, be feisty about it.

dual exhausts are total garbage unless your running a V8 or higher, and each side is collected and run through the muffler seperatley...Y pipes on a 2.2l are basiclly like putting a foot long tube of cheese cloth in the piping and then saying to the motor "hey, breathe through this, bitch"

however, since this is what you want, thats what you have to do...you'll need to rip off the heat shield that runs along the mid pip, or at least notch it out so another set of piping can run back. you'll need a muffler shop to weld on hangers as well..itll have to look like this..."

Trust me. Run 4 pipes for show. One per cyl. Some people run ITB's? You can run IE's. You won't regret it.

Yea great way to be clowned on by anyone that knows anything about cars with your dual exhaust 2.2 liter I4....

Good god. I'd make the stretch to having a turbo 4 cyl with a dual exhaust...but nope, not in this case.

Youre just doing NOTHING wiht a dual exhaust, as FW said, most dual exhausts are 2pipes to 1 pipe to 2 pipes again...the GTO is the only newer car I can think of off the top of my head with a TRUE dual exhaust.

to you, but to most people its ugly...

people who know little about cars would see to odd looking round mufflers coming out of Honda, and say, "wtf is that?"
people who know about cars will say "that is ridiculous"

so i guess you fall int o neither catagory.....i wonder what that means...

Are you kidding? I hate JDM. JDM for the most part is a crock of ****, the only things I like are things taht are actually functional.

This has nothing to do with JDM.....its actually knowing about cars. It may be astounding to you, but this is honda-TECH, not honda-RICE, and we like learning about our cars and improving them, not making them shittier.

why dont you shut your ******* mouth and read the ******* topic. its HIS car and he wants to go show and you are sitting here trying to tell him otherwise. do you want someone to tell you how to modify your ******* car...didnt think so.

1 - how are body kits bad? im not saying i like them, i dont, but that doesnt mean they are BAD... especially on a car thats for SHOW!!!!

2 - he is not basing a performance aspect of his car... yeah it can be for performance, but he has already stated that he doesnt ******* care about performance..so give it a ******* rest. all he wanted to know about was mounting the damned thing, not how it sounds/performs.

3 - he didnt buy a dual exhaust body kit, he purchased or is purchasing a body kit that he thinks looks good, it just so happens to have a dual exhaust rear, instead of filling it, he decided he would just got ahead for the dual exhaust, since its for show and not for go.


there is nothing wrong with it, it just how he wants to do things.

get off your ******* pedestal and step down into reality, yes this is honda TECH... but youre so ******* stupid you associate TECH with only things that go on under the hood of the car.

well here, let me ******* help you out bucko. TECH, is short for technical / technology

2 : of or relating to technique

</TD></TR></TABLE>

those are different definitions of technical.. they dont always have to do with mechanical work. body work, is an area of automotive knowledge thats derived from a technique.

so honda-TECH covers that as well

you sound so ******* ignorant yelling all that bullshit in this thread, when all you had to do was either stay out of it, or offer some ******* help.

Oh go suck his dual ****. I dont care what he does beyond the dual exhaust, thats just retarded. Go find something better to do than jump into the accord forum and whine that we're not nice and we dont let people do their thing.

Do you think 2 people on the entire internet telling him no would stop him if he wanted to?

i dont give a **** if youre nice or not...but youre not even addressing the ******* topic anymore, youre just sitting there to boost your post count and to insult him. the **** is that going to accomplish??

That sounded pretty technical to me...and I followed up from further tech from FW concerning the layout of said dual exhaust. I'm not jumping up my post count, I stated facts and opinion. If I responded with 'dual exhausts are gay!' then i'd be post whoring. You, however, havent contributed ANYTHING to his topic, so you're a hypocrite in saying taht I'm going off on a tangent.

Here's my tech, all summed up:

There is no reason a 2.2 liter inline four engine that is naturally aspirated should have a dual exhaust. There is no real way to make a true dual exhaust for the vehicle, and all it would do is look ridiculous, add weight, and create more restriction in the exhaust system. I find that choosing a dual exhaust over a single exhaust pipe based on aesthetics of an aftermarket bodykit is a foolish reason.

I reacted harshly to his post because when people disagreed with him he said 'youre all dumbasses', which is immature, because in asking for opinions, he should expect not everyone to agree with him.

As for post whoring, you've done a good job of that yourself, I dont feel the need to continue bumping my 3000+ post count up by one for arguing with you, since that's all you've done.

All the GT mustangs from around 88-06 (maybe even further back) have had true dual exhaust. And the GTO in 04 didn't have true dual exhaust and in 05 it was an option.

your an *** clown..im shocked you had time to let go of the OP **** so you could type up your whiney bitch *** posts

Ben isnt flaming anyone just to up his post count. READ THE ******* THREAD. everyone who contributed basically said HOW to do it (question asked) then gave their own $.02 (advising him not to do it). when the OP didnt like everyones opinions, he got all pissy and sprouted off some thing abut JDM blah blah blah...HE attacked the opinions and advice of others, and then you had to chime in. YOU are the post ***** if anything, and your just jealous cause bagged and ken wont let you in to our supper secret ***** club...so GTFO
