Not hard, but pointless unless you're boosting.

slows you down even if you do boost( i boost) really not worth it. when i had dual exhaust they made a l pipe and welded it into the stock piping. now im running 3" straight pipe from teh downpipe back

It would be pretty much cosmetic only. I like symmetry.

I just like the even look rather than having a muffler on one side and not one on the other. I have some ugly magnaflow on there right now so I was looking to improve it.

Fashion comes waayyyy after Function if you ask me....

But, yeah just go to a reputable exhaust/muffler place and tell them what you want and they'll do it. You may loose power and you'll definately gain weight.

Get one pipe for each cylinder and have them shooting straight up along the edges of the hood...

if u want symmetry have the shop put it in the middle

on a side note, funny thing, was leavin the block here in orange, ca and this guy in his cholo'd sentry i think had a body kit, big open wire mesh that you could see through, and his "dual exhaust" was a single exhaust, and on the other side was an 8 inch long muffler tip that was just hanging there attached to NOTHING and it was in plain sight, what are these people thinking

Ya i think one pipe in the middle would/could look kinda cool, if you did it right. I think i saw that on a new ?? porsche ?? but it was built into the rear bumper.

sorry for even more of a side note but... i saw the worst car ever, unless it had A TON of engine work to it, it was strictly cosmetic. It was one of those old skool ford taurus(sp?) that was lowered onto like 13 inch wheels with probably like 10 inch rims, a custom gold paint job with flames, a HUGE @$$ spoiler to match that paint job, and this hood inlet on the hood that was bigger than most muscle cars. Oh cant forget about 10 stickers on each side that were behind the front wheel and one of those stuuupid silver pattern tints you get from checkers. I almost crashed because i couldn't belave how ghetto it was and just stared with my jaw open.
