How does your car run with that dual exhaust setup?

I love it. Its a little loud, but I liked the power gain. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

What is the exact setup? I'm curious.https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

you have a header, 2 pre-silencers, then it goes back to 2 mufflers. Not much to it. It is all uncollected. With wet pavement my tires will break loose in 2nd gear.

Is it the Mazdatrix setup, or did you make it yourself?

I have the mazdatrix setup untill after the pre-silencers, then after that I had a muffler shop bend some pipe and weld up the universal "race" mufflers I bought. If I could do it again I would have bought the whole dual setup from mazdatrix. It cost me about the same, and I would have had HKS mufflers. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif But it was well worth the $....

Sounds good. I've always thought about giving it a try in my other car. Now I just need $1400.https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

I have to figure a way to stick a cat in there. I have an emissions test in Feb. :frown:

That's going to be tricky. You could try buying a road race header flange and merge the 2 pipes into 1 to the cat. Then maybe you can use your old y-pipe from the cat after modifying it.

I threw out my stock exhaust, I didn't have room for it. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif I was thinking about merging them together, maybe to a 3" pipe. Then put my cat in and a silencer or two then only have 1 muffler. All I know is it'll cost a lot of $ whatever I do. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

That should work. I like to save ALL of my extra parts. I want to be like Fred Sanford.
