Hey guys

As you probably know I have a 2.5" single exhaust system from the pacemakers back and standard cats. I wanted a dual tip muffler but they did not have any in at the time.
Does anyone know:
1. does dual tip produce extra kw?
2. makes more noise?
3. recomend a particular brand?
etc etc

Thanks for your feedback guys. Thats the option I actually went with. A single fuffler with a 2 tip extension. Do you guys reckon a proper dual tip would be better?

No difference apart from being a bit more expensive.

I have dual 2.5" from the cats back. Cost $450 of ebay, sounds good. Came with dual staggered tips, looks great :thumbsup:

Different car and different exhaust tja. On the V8's thats the best option.
I would question the quality at $450 though. Don't get me wrong it may be fine but a lot of those systems off ebay are chinese and tend to be a bit more restrictive than the aussie ones.

1. No. (Haha you wish)
2. No.
3. I wouldn't recommend a brand, just keep looking around at car stores until you find one you like, wouldn't be much/any different between brands except price and design.
