I want to eliminate my dual exhaust i need your opinion am try for something different i want to eliminate one of them but don't know which side would look the best any opinions?

 

single = better
less weight
my vote to passenger side, better balance

 

I say passenger...

less fumes coming in your door if you stop and hop out real quick

 

driver side - jdm and less bends

 

drvr, +1 on rob. The only thing that you should werry about is the releaf for the oposing side on the bumper, how to patch that, evry time i look at mine i get sad.(cant spell)

 

driver,worry,relief,opposite,every...wow lol

 

they both look bad, stick with the dual =P

 

ha def stick to duals..if the car comes with duals leave it duals..its what seperates us from the ricers..most all civics integras blah blah have single loud anoyying and slow cars..2 4 u

 

I have a passenger side single exhaust for sale here in Tallahassee. I wasn't going to try to sell it online (don't want to ship it), and I don't know anyone locally that could use it, so I'll let it go real cheap if you want to drive here to pick it up.

RB header, no-name presilencer (used less than a year), 2.5" pipe to a SS polished Magnaflow muffler.

 

Are u running a turbo or non turbo?

Turbo= better with single
N/A = better with dual

 

single is the way to go if you can keep it quite. There is no reason for duals. The manifold exits only on one side, so why do you need 2?

24" magnaflow and a 18" muffler on the end. passenger side exit

 

True i already have 2 N1's and 3" downpipe but i just like JDM style i like both styles just want to try something different doesnt mean i don't like duals now i hate when people change the rotary with another engine!!!

 

single is completely fugly, but if you are going to get one, go with corksport

 

The weight saving is well under 1% of the car's total weight. Good luck noticing that...

Turbo or NA makes no difference at all.

You've answered your own question. IF you can keep it quiet. The reason for two parallel mufflers is being able to have better noise suppression for the same flow or the same noise suppression for better flow.

 

NA dont go larger than 2.5"
Turbo should be a minimum 2.5"

Drivers side is easier to fabricate cos there's less bends.
I have a 2.25" Lukey cat back exhaust with a hi flow muffler in the middle out to a 4" cannon. Very noticable power gain over the stock dual. And lots louder.

 

I just gave you the formula. My 7 is the quietest modded 7 around town.


Here it is again
24" magnaflow and a 18" muffler on the end. passenger side exit

 

Symmetry = good. Dual exhaust = Good. There's two spots for it. Single exhaust on a dual exhaust car looks tacky.

 

with that logic, you could run your car off rainbows and Febreeze... LOL

everyone is entitlted to their own opinion, but as far as performance goes, single wins.

PS: There is a way to keep it quiet.

Also I run 2.5" pipe on mine. A friend runs like 3.5 or 4" and his car is much louder than mine. Still not as nasty os most of the dual exhaust 7's around here.

 

you could get bumper guards to block off the other hole if you go single, and to protect your bumper from melting off!

im going single exhaust soon, passenger side FTW

 

i have a t2 with the racin beat duals, its a 3in with 2.5 to the mufflers, its quiet as hell i love it. wouldnt the best flow be on the passanger side cause the manifold is on the passanger side. just thinkin...........................

 

i agree that the RB sounds the best, no boubt about it. it is a little pricey tho.

Passenger side is theoretically the best, but it's not like we are talking about 90* curves to get it to the driver side

 

MY buddy did a single out the drivers side then relocated the battery where the other muffler used to be-- balance out the weight. Just an Idea

 

Thanks for your guys opinions! freemanrx7 how did that work for him so far?

 

like nzconvertible said i dont think you'll be able to notice the weight, a passanger weighs more than the exhaust..........................

 

TOO LOUD!!!!!

Another friend had an exit out the driverside. = Fireball city.
