Installed MT true duals today!
Badass! Took me all day to take off the old stuff, around 2 hours to put on new stuff. Whole setup cost me $1500.
First impressions: Definately deeper at idle, never tinny and no pissed off bumble bee, but slightly rice sounding
A new 02 sensor fixed my fux0red idle.
Man it sure pulls harder though, at least 25 horse 15 tq says the butt.
Second impression: Was driving down a local highway (going 80 mph) coming home from test drive when a late model Vtec integra swerves around in traffic to catch up. I had it in fourth (dumb) and when he got up next to me I punched the gas (5000 RPM's). He pulled two car lengths ahead of me and my friend next to me said he is gonna waste you. We keep racing up to 110 or so and I start reeling him in, I start yellin. 7k and 120 and the **** is behind me. Brake lights up ahead and we slow down, guy gives thumbs up, cool dude. If i had it in 3rd it would have been no contest I think.
I want to take it to the dyno and tune my S-AFC. Look for a white 91 n/a with rb mufflers at sevenstock.
Mods: True duals, TII fuel pump, S-AFC, Cone filter, 6ports working, 15k on a rebuilt.
Future: Custom bored out TB, ported intake, efan, bridgeport, carb, supercharger!

Nice man, I want true duals! You gotta get that thing on a dyno...I want to see how much power they really give before I justify spending $1500. Do you think its worth it? Seems most people think so...

200 for a collected header seems more reasonable to me. My RB gave me a butt load of pull for that. I'll have dyno info in a couple weeks when the street ported motor is broken in

yes I heard that single will give you a bit more up top but the true duals give more power and torqe throught a larger power band. Very nice. I respect anyone with that system but im going for Single with pre-silencer. Does anyone have one I can buy?

Right now I have stock manifold with Streight pipe bonez exaust and Single cat-back. Sounds awsome but I think I can feel the car run out of breath up top. People say they dont make much power over a streight pipe but I will have to disagree. 5 flwheeel hp up top totally justifys all that noise in my opinion.

My engine (stock w/intake mods) ran out of fuel on the top but never ran out of power. It'd be pulling hard to 7500 and then lean out to the point it would knock and sputter.
I have a halmeter now, so when the new motor is in trouble I'll know it long before it gets dangerous.
BTW... My engine was rebuilt because of the cracked water o-ring land, not blown apex seals.
