It won't be a problem... Depending on a few things, I'll be running FI LTHs with my 3" single exhaust with a HKS Hi-Power muffler.

No particular reason...that's just the way the piping was ran.

wouldn't it flow better through two separate exhausts than routed into one?

Most JDM exhaust like Amuse used 3 inch mid pipe then connect to 2 canister.

370ZTUNE.com

im guessing same flow but lighter. I just want lighter exhaust without going TI.

for a single turbo setup a large single exhaust is ideal of course you then need to either live with the extra bumper cutout or fill it somehow.

I doubt it. To be honest, I keep wondering why every company keeps putting out the same 2.5" exhaust. It's almost as if people are afraid of 3" exhausts.

In the civic community (8thcivic), everyone ran 2.25-2.5" exhausts for years because of these claims that a 3" was 'too big'. Finally a company came out with a 3" and showed that it gained everywhere, with no losses, and now no one wants an exhaust that isn't a 3". I suspect the gains would be just as great (greater) here. I really don't get all of the FI guys who are running 2.5" DPs/exhausts. That one really boggles my mind.

dual 3" WILL lose you low end torque. back ressure creates torque. sure u might gain slight hp up top but the butt dyno will feel like there is less power because of the torque loss.

and before anyone asks "how do u know if a 3" will lose power? have u tried it?"... well no i havent, but i understand how cars work...

i was more responding to awkwardturtle above. comparing a single 2.25" to a single 3" doesnt mean it would work on duals.

i think a single 3" would work great on our cars tho. our engine would definately create enough exhuast gas take advantage of that type of setup
