Should I go double?

Did a quick photoshop yesterday and I have to say: I like the look of the double-exhaust... (Don't flame me, I don't wanna build a GT-Clone, I just like the look...)

What do you think?

The set up under the car would look something like this... (no H / X-pipe) Would dual flowmasters still sound okay with a set up like this? How about GT take offs?

That set-up may result is un-equal pressure effecting performance or not

A friend of mine has this set-up on his '07 V6, and the only effect he had so far is better gas mileage...

I like the look of a duel exhaust over a single exhaust, it looks much more symetrical .

make sure you get a GT rear bumper cover...or better yet....the GT/CS one that will better accomidate the Dual set up seem and much more OE. I dont like it when people just put them under thier bumper...looks like they cheaped out.

If you cut it right the V6 bumper looks nice and clean. If you don't want to cut the V6 bumper get the GT/CS Bumper it looks a lot better than the regular GT bumper.

V6 Cut

Duals look so much better. And not how they did them on the 04 GTO, that was awful, the icing on the cake.
Just cut it.
I don't think I like the GT/CS rear. Not from pics at least, but maybe in person can be a different story all together.

Sure! It's looks much better. I like things to be balanced. I would run a GT bumper and GT stock mufflers. You can pick them up pretty cheap on ebay. No need to spend more money on Flows or anything else.

I think it looks great and there is nothing wrong with it on a 6. We get them done up all the time at the dealer by a speed shop and they trim the bumper exactly like the factory cutout. Looks perfect and sounds decent. Some of the other custom converters we get cars from use an APC setup that sounds good too, but TOTALLY different from using two GT mufflers.
