Single vs. Dual Exhaust

[Baller152]

I recently purchased my Titan and I am looking to upgrade my factory exhaust system but I have few questions that I am hoping someone can answer for me first.

What are the performance differences between a single and dual pipe system? I see that several manufactures offer both.

Which exhaust is better?? Borla, Stillen, Flowmaster, etc. ???? Or perhaps one that I have not considered?

look at this thread, it does tallk about it. It is also your personal prefernce. I could tell you Stillen bcuz I have it and love it. Someone else will tell you Zoomers, another person will tell you Banks, and etc....

Thanks, what about a single vs dual pipes?

[rcantu]

not a power difference but more for looks.

Actually, you'll probably get more power from a single, since you won't lose as much backpressure = make more torque. When I bought the Stillen exhaust today, the sales guy asked which I wanted - I said "the one that makes the most torque." He said, "Single side-exit it is!"

Cool! Thanks for the advice!

Its a preference of many choices, I did the Stillen dual exhaust at my dealership and very happy with it.

I went with a custom true dual for far less than most bolt on kits

ive heard/read that this looses your back pressure and get a power/tq drop.. not true?? the custom true duals are my plan but im hesitant to loose and pwr too

a lot depends on the size of pipe you choose. with duals, dont go any bigger on the pipe

I went with 2.5 after the cats (deleted the resos) I would say I lost a little low end but got it back on top.

Just split into duals after the muffler, either a dual out or a single out with a y.

[kartman]

well if you want disco then do fake duels.
