Dual Exhaust

[Blackcasper2005]

Well i finally got mu dual exhaust and it cost me $342.00 wasnt cheap but dure as hell sounds good. Ill see if i can get some pics for yall and maybe a video clip

[SuperGLS]

I'm interested to see pics. Most people say that the dual setup isn't "worth it" performance wise, but I don't know. I bet it looks cool. Where is the split from 1 pipe to 2 pipes at? Also, did you cut your bumper to raise up the pipes in the back?

[mlumz]

if you get a chance do a dyno, i'm interested in seeing if you are getting better performance, worse or the same?

[xxxmonoxidechil]

there would be no performance gain at all, but if done right, there wont be a lose either. but looks are just as important to me. lol. it gotz to look pretty

[Jlivan]

Can't wait to see pics. It does suck if you don't get any gain but hell.....at least it looks great....lol!

[ricerrx7]

The performance can be better than stock, but not better than an aftermarket single exhaust. (Just to clarify...)

[txdproject]

depends on the pipe size from before the Y... if you get 2 and a 1/4 all the way back to the y and then get maybe 1 1/4 for the 2 pipes you might get some gains... people make the mistake most times of getting both the pipes off the Y done the same size as the main which will kill back pressure...which will kill torque. When i had my dual it was setup with a smaller pipe for the two ends and a 2 and 1/4 for the main and i saw gains both low end and top end. Oh and i had no mufflers just pipes..... it wasnt to loud either

[Blackcasper2005]

Txdproject that is exactly what i have and i do see gains, but my is loud so im gonna see if i can get a video tonight

[silversharkXD2]

would the GK 4cyl. tib dual exhaust fit the XD2? even with a little tweaking? Just something Ive been wondering.

[Blackcasper2005]

I think so but it wouldnt look right with the tibs being huge, thats just my opinion

[txdproject]

would the GK 4cyl. tib dual exhaust fit the XD2? even with a little tweaking? Just something Ive been wondering. its just a stock Y ...you'd be better off just getting a muffler shop to make you one.

So did you dyno it? If not then you didn't see any gains. You may feel it but a butt-dyno is not good enough because on top of that there is like the placebo effect. Just because you made a mod you might think the car is peppier. But you won't know till you do a dyno.

Afriend of mine once turned her single to dual in her Accord. It was a big improvement because she did make the pipes after the y smaller.

So you got that going for you. Just have to see what the actual gains are which we probably won't ever know since there is no "before" dyno...

:worthless

[Ugzz]

:worthless
Aint that the truth.. Pics plzz!

i havnt seen many of these on the site and i been thinkin about it myself.

[cclngthr]

I would like to see the underside of the car and how it is routed. I thought about doing this, but haven't had some idea how the pipes are routed.

[robs02elantra]

if only concepto was still in existance. I'd get the kit and do the dual exhaust if there was no loss in power!

[silversharkXD2]

its just a stock Y ...you'd be better off just getting a muffler shop to make you one.
i meant aftermarket

[OPZ]

:worthless:

im interested in doing this to, lets see!

[CornbreadXD]

is he bluffing?

[OPZ]

Im thinking so. But with some mad cash coming in soon, im ganna be making some estimates.

[steven]

then you will post pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Blackcasper2005]

no im not bluffing, dont forget i wrecked my car so i wont have any pics until after the 17th i promise i will post some pics and hopefully a video

[03GTE]

you dont know any one with a camera phone?

[Cypher]

if nitrousworld didn't go down then i'd quote ronniesan's pictures of his dual exhaust setup but sadly its gone.

[OPZ]

I remember ronniesans, but im just eager to see how this is done so I can get mine done, if that is what I decide on. Its either full on exhaust from the cat back, or this dual setup...

[beeman]

hey give the guy a chance.......
maybe he's right................

[Blackcasper2005]

well like i said when i get my car back ill take pics of it and a video

[OPZ]

I belive him, it HAS been done before, by ronniesan, but he had to get it done like 4 times. Black apparently got it after once, and im just really curious and eager to see how he did his.

[Blackcasper2005]

well here's the pic, well what yall think

[OPZ]

Honestly its not bad. If I do mine, im going to do them like that, but put the tips so thier more on the outside of the car, and tucked back in a little bit more.

Any underside pics? Sound clip? Opinions on power?

[Cypher]

in my opinion i think i'd like it more if they were spread out some more. i'll tell you how it sounds on sunday opz lol

[OPZ]

Take a vid clip and as many pics as you can. Haha, and yea, thats what I ment, spread em more.


The exhaust. Not you.

[joph09]

looks good! is there anyway that you can mount them so that they look similar to the positions of the new sonata v6, those look awsome

[Blackcasper2005]

yeah i can but i gotta wait to get some more money first just paid my deductable from the accident

[SilverElantra]

reminds me too much of the srt4's...i prefer the beemer look for a dual exhaust....but looks good man...

[steven]

looks good started to not believe u for a second.

[jayupark]

your car is clean. Can you tuck the tips a bit higher? Maybe cut the bumper a bit? Just a suggestion. I think it would look alot better if you had the tips tucked away a bit (not sticking out), and maybe a bit further apart..

Good work though.

[NY2002ElantraGT]

i would spread them, have the tips stick out less, do a bumper cut out to tuck them in. IMO

how bout video clip to hear, and some shots underneath, wanna see how you how the pipes are run.

[Blackcasper2005]

well ill see if cypher has a camera i have him take some pics

[Blackcasper2005]

well hear a video it aint clear but the sound is

[KeWLKaT]

ummm

personally i think it sounds like ***. sorry.

reminds me of a honDUH civic

[Blackcasper2005]

ok cool no hard feelings

[KeWLKaT]

Unless it's just the video? I don't know. I just don't like loud exhaust in general :) I'm happy you don't get pissed like 400% of the people on here when I give y opinion

[importdriver05]

atleast you have an original idea, looks good!

[BIGROB]

it does look good, i give u that. sounds a little "different" perse', and lookin back at the pics id say if u got a nice little bumper cutout, cut about an inch or too off the pipes and moved the tips back then tucked the tips a little bit, it would be golden... dont take this the wrong way, it kinda reminds me of a SRT-4....

[Blackcasper2005]

thats kinda where i got the idea from but like i said i wanted something different, it kinda sounds like a srt-4 without the turbo

[OPZ]

I kinda like how it sounds, but i'd prefer if it was a lil deeper. Thats cool though, im ganna see if a shop around here can do it. Any pics of the underside?

[Blackcasper2005]

ill see if i can get some

[seraphim]

all I want to know is how is it on gas is there any difference

[Blackcasper2005]

actually i have no idea, lets see i drive about a 100 miles a day and use half of a quarter of a tank a day

[ExemptedNut]

I think it looks pretty decent, doesn't sound 'bad' in my opinion but I would like to her an outside of the car sound clip....
and is it just me or does it look like the driver's side tip is sticking out just slightly further than the passengers side

P.S, I think we have the same tires :redface:

[Blackcasper2005]

if we have the same tires these tires suck imo but i think its just the pic cause there even

[Freddy Krueger]

oops!

:( I did'nt heard the clip you made but i saw the picture and i'm sorry to say this but it's way to ricer to my taste. :smileyr: If it had been more under the bumper with less visible pipe, it would have been great. That's my opinion!


No hard feeling!
