Default Am looking for a dual exhaust...which gets the best bang for the buck...?

I know that the single exhaust gets the most power...but I really luv the looks of the dual exhaust...!

So...which ones would you prefer? Which give the best "bang for the buck"? Hp wise and sound wise?

OR...which mufflers would you prefer/suggest? Dual mufflers...?

Thnx in advance for the help...

You will not get much HP gain from an aftermarket dual exhaust. The only real reason to purchase one is to change the sound. So, bang for buck, yeah the stock system.

Now, if you do want to change the sound, it's all a matter of personal preference.

sorry, i must politely disagree. mugen makes ZERO power gain on the dyno on two separate occassions (and two separate cars).

Just as many singles show no power gain with a one off dyno test including the Spoon! Don't get hung up on the sales pitches and hersay.. the Mugen makes a small gain just like most exhausts only offer a small gain.

2-3 HP gain for a $1100 or more investment. If you're just looking for horsepower gain, that's money better spent elsewhere.

AGREE! save it for your new rear-end. And now go out there and drop it at 6K rpm . You'll gain most hp that way.

Im not sure about hp, but the SuperSprint Exhaust LOOKS the best.

It's also kinda heavy, i think.
