Dual Exhaust for P5
 

Anybody ever try putting/adding dual exhaust for their p5?

Like cutting another strip on the left side.
I loved them on how they made my friends accord looked
So im wondering if i should do it to my p5.

*bump

people KNOW we have 4 bangers.....duals look goofy on 4 bangers....for starters they are useless....

NOW, if you win the lottery....or are just rich...and you go and stuff a V-6, V-8, or rotory in your P-5 and add rear wheel drive or AWD....dual it out....you will be able to back up the look.

not to mention...there is only ONE cut out on our back bumpers....

Agreed, duals looks a bit silly on a 4 cyl engine, at least I know I get a kick out of seeing some dude in a Civic with two huge pipes on the back. Save you money and get a sweet single pipe exhaust instead.

ahhh, the age old question...duals on a protege5.

well, if you look at the wings west protege and read it's sponsors contributions, you'll see that magnaflow contributed a dual exhaust for it.

i asked mitch about it, but he didn't have any info.

Why are so many people interested in "performance looks" that hurt performance?

The only thing a dual exhaust would do is add more weight to the car. Since the only interest is looks, why not just mount an exhaust tip and maybe muffler?

Yeah... that's it... get a big aluminum can, paint with some chrome spraypaint, attach some aftermarket exhaust tip and mount it to the back of your car.

Might I suggest you get a pair of those "Afterburner" lighted exhaust tips that they sell at AutoZone... might as well make it look like your car has jet power too...

do what you like with your car, but most car enthusiasts know the P5 has a 2.0; you might impress the 14 year old who mows your neighbour's lawn to buy Daredevil comics, but you ain't foolin' real drivers!

:smoke:

the S2000 has dual tips but i think it has 1 muffler, but the s2000 has 110 more HP than us...:eek: out of the same displacement engine!!!!!!!

The S200 has 2 mufflers

What the hell does it do with them? It only has one bank of cylinders. IMO it is retarded to put dual exhausts if you don't at least have the two banks of cylinders to feed it from. Its all going to be one pipe somewhere unless you get some kind of weird ass two-cylinder header job.

But some people just like the look of dual tips, even though it means nothing.

If he wants dual tips let him go ahead and have it, he likes the look better,

its more of a personal preference i think of it

But if he thinks its better performance wise, for the P5, then he's wrong!!

and only real entusiasts know that our cars are 4 bangers, and you know that not many ppl are real car enthusiasts, allot of ppl just think they are, and will go along saying yeah thats wicked dual exhaust, but they really aren't.

I like the look of a dual tip over a single tip, but i know the difference performance wise, and why dual tips would be no use, but I'd still take a dual tip over a single tip, cuz its my preference

also if you can get the exhaust to make a nice bassy noise, then you'll probably impress allot of ppl, hehe:D

Real drivers drive manual cars not automatics......someone has dual exhaust on their protege5. I remember seeing the pics for it. Try a search and look in the photo section....

Damn dude thats harsh! "Real Drivers Drive Manuals"!

the thing is tho its definately tru
real drivers drive manuals, no other way of putting it

I've seen this a few times on many different cars. Its easy to tell when the second muffler is there just for show because its always super clean with no black exhaust crap inside the 5 inch tip while the other is stained black.

here is a pic
 

Hey, the dual exhaust is killer lookin, and duh, they know we have 4 cyl but we also know it to so if they are smart about why we do this they will know its for show and not for go... if i want go i jump in my 88 jeep wrangler with a 302 with 351 heads with NOS and go mudding, but when i cruise the streets I take my mp5 and just cruise, nothing more, the dual exhuast really gives it a balanced look to, sometimes seeing those huge ass pipes are funny looking, they are almost bigger than the block! lol oh well do what ya want, its your car you bought it, unless they pay for it they cant say shit! HAPPY CRUISIN'
here is the link for the dual exhuast....
