Im all about functionality, but it looks terrible. I really still fail to see how one exhaust pipe flows better than two all other things being equal. I would've kept 2 and pulled them out of the bumper. That would completely leave the rear end open for a big diffuser. Let me illustrate...

I mean our renders werent supposed to be super accurate, just an idea (unless your talking about RobiSpec's stuff )...but if you take your version of it you still have room in the center for a single exhaust and have the diffuser work as intended...I happen to think both versions look great!

Only if we can get someone to make this...

No, I was talking about Robispecs car. So can someone explain to me how one large pipe flows better than two large pipes? Is it a exhaust pulse thing with one pulse pulling the other out? or is this just a "lets lose weight and flow better than stock with a single bigger pipe" type thing?

I imagine it has to do with the second option; obviously I cannot speak on Robi's behalf, but it seems to me that the car will be benefiting from weight loss, less bends, and depending on their finished rear diffuser, aerodynamics.

The way I look at it, if I am sipping on a drink, I would rather have one straw that is more straight instead of two straws with a few bends.

I do not think that the benefits from this modification will be extreme or dramatic, but for those who need the extra few lbs, I am sure this is it.

Maybe after your Z34 goes all track, you can look into the F430 exhaust & diffuser combo...for something that sexy I'd throw down even though I don't own a Z .

Haha, with the right help, I wouldnt mind having my exhaust come out the middle of the bumper and having a giant diffuser there instead. Its too bad I don't own a shop hehe.

Correct me if I am wrong here, but wouldn't funneling exhaust gases into a single pipe create a log jam, so to speak??
Or is the diameter going to be larger than 2.5/2.75 to compensate?

More than likely they will use a larger diameter; probably 3".

Makes sense. Interested to see how this turns out.
