![]() Go with true Duals. It looks better and sounds better and better air flow. I have sound clips of My tru duals on my 94 v6. If I ever get off my lazy but and if someone wants to hear them I will post them.

![]() Hmm,
Good question... my limited knowledge of the sixers are going to show here. But considering you might want to save some torque on the low end (especially running a six), I would opt for a single exhaust with a dual conversion at the back. As my experience with base models are limited, results may vary... ![]()

![]() Godstang gives excellent advise. He, as well as a few others, helped me make this same decision.
I have a 97 V-6, 3.8. I went with true dual exhaust. My muffler guy cut the 'Y' pipe right behind the cats, then ran 2-1/4 inch aluminized pipe into two, dual-chamber Flowmaster mufflers and Stainless steel tips. It sounds great, looks great and gave my some extra ponies! ![]()

![]() Go with 2.25" duals into dual cats with either an H pipe or - for better performance - an X pipe between the cats and dual 50 series delta flow Flowtech mufflers. Go to their site http://www.flowtechmufflers.com and check out the 50 series mufflers. They have some sound clips that will show you what they sound like (take into account the examples are of camaro 3.8L's). I truly believe you will not go wrong with the flowtech decision and 2.25" exhaust all the way. Going with a 3" single exhaust will only impede your air flow and reduce your back pressure too much. Besides, a 3" pipe only allows about 66mm of airflow to exit. If your throttle body is a 70mm, you have a 4mm restriction before you even start the car! If you go with dual 2.25", you have a total of 4.5" of exhaust room, giving about a 99mm airflow availability. If you are running a 70mm TB, you have an extra 29mm of room for your blower! With the delta chambers, you will still retain your back pressure since there's not a "direct" output (or straight-pipe). Too much flow is as bad as too much restriction.
Go dual and GET IT ON BABY!

![]() Duh! The real URL is http://www.flowmastermufflers.com, NOT FLOWTECH!
All references above were for flowmaster mufflers. Guess that one blew up in my face! ![]() ![]()

![]() Copy the second URL into your browser address line and it will work. I know it works, I just got a pair of 50 series deltas for my 2.3L dual setup

![]() Found the issue with the URL. When you copy it to the address line, delete the comma after the .com! I swear I've not been drinking!
