Does having dual exhaust on a Celica do anything for performance or is it strictly for look??

u really should cause im looking into something like that now. does the 3 inch piping add more horses? im thinkin about getting a header and then doing exhaust modifications. and i am serious about the magnaflow no doubt there. but i was wondering how the guy did it.

if you could would you post some pics of the muffler and how he ran the dual pipes?

Please and THANKS

How is the back-pressure and flow of the exhaust now that it is almost 2.5 times the appropriate size of the stock exhaust?
Group B rally cars barely scratched that large of pipes and they were cars with over a million in R&D work into them.

And to quote an engine builder "you felt a power gain because you were looking for a [horsepower] gain, not because it was there."

If you like the sound it makes, more power to you, but I can cite numerous studies and websites that prove that a dual setup is not ideal for your application.
