how is it possible to run a true dual exhaust? This is a 4 cylinder engine.

edit: the exhaust comes out of one side.

in the case of the S2000 a "true dual" exhaust, meaning each pair of cylinders has seperate exhaust pipes from the engine all the way back, would hurt performance.

the S2000 has a working dual exhaust, and with good reason. it's not an easy exhaust to improve on, and honestly, if the exhaust is your only mod, it's only worth getting for the sound, because you won't gain much.

If, indeed the original poster really understood what he was saying, a true "dual" on a 4-cycle, 4 cylinder engine would not allow for decent scavanging. But I'm sure he knew that.
