Oops, my bad.

Weight is also an issue, but dual exhausts have more drag than a single of the same cross-sectional area due to the increased area of the interior tube walls.

I just put on a set of the duals. They look and sound great. Only gripe I've had is that combined with my Tanabe 1.5" lowering springs, they sit way too low and I scrape almost every time I go into my driveway. I guess one advantage of having a single exhaust is that it would be easier to angle for driveways and speedbumps.

That looks real nice. Did you pull the exhaust up towards the body more? I tried getting my cans higher up, but there wasn't much give vertically to pull them up by.

How'd you manage to do that? I can't seem to figure out a good way to do it w/out bending the piping.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this, but... you won't pass smog with the Bonez Dual High Flow Cat. It is not CARB certified. Your vehicle may pass when tested, but the visual inspection technically SHOULD not be passed. Not saying it won't pass for certain, but it shouldn't, at least not in California.
