get a single!

had a hks dual exhaust before and now i have a t1r single 63mm. the power when vtec kicks in is very noticeable. only downside is that its a bit louder.

Well dual exhaust help flow air out quicker therefore give more HP and Single give torque because of back pressure, then why you already get after market exhaust because it bigger.

When we talk about hp loss... how many hp do you estimate? I don't think that it would be over 2-4 hp, which is not worth it to me. The duals just look better and the rear end was made for it anyway.

Looks like Gello stirred up a bee's nest with this question.

Sheesh!

singles yield better exhaust flow.. hence the higher power gains.

well i went from my single back to dual because i didnt feel any difference except the headaches from long drives because it was just that much louder.

and i like the dual look.

5 Zigen pro racer spec exhaust

This is the one I'm going to get if I don't get one fabricated.

It's a good price, looks Good, should hold up well. And (according to the S2000 exhaust comparison video) it's only 93db at cruising speeds (stock is 91.3db's).

But there are a lot of singles to choose froms. I'm still a newbie when it comes to this subject as well.
