i'd keep the twin pipes just cause i prefer the balanced look. i've never really liked the single exit

this is where my dilemma comes in. i like the balanced look as well, but also like the looks of single exit with a rear lip that deletes the second space in the bumper..

well as long as you fill up the gap on the bumper than all is well...single exit looks more menacing but dual exit looks much cleaner. I also find that oval mufflers look better for dual exits....while the cylindrical canister look better for the single exit, give it a little angle and BAM! JDM style

Pros: Less weight, looks cooler (to some at least)

Cons: You'll have the hole cut out in the bumper on the other side. It's not that noticable though.

I've got dual 3" tips out the driver's side...Don't have any good pics of it, but this'll have to do for now.

Single has better flow, sounds like a "supra"... better flow if you get bigger piping, better top end.. not that good for low. I love mine. i need to do a sound clip...

i prefer the single look. duals are nice on some cars but, that fact i know its an I6 just doesnt do it for me. now if it were an SC4 then i wouldnt have a problem running duals.

you could always just buy an exhaust for a mkiv supra. only thing thats needed is an extra peice of pipe to extend the lenth some.

I guess the Camaro tips are wider when I look at it. That wasn't a slam against your car if you took it that way, I'd love to have the CME on my '99.
