Why does that top picture remind me of a turbo?! <img src=/images/forums/snitz/laugh.gif width=15 height=31 border=0>
Im getting a conversion on that car, 2 straight pipes that branch off from the headers then leading into the mufflers, Simply because I dont like the whole single piping on a v6 car. Thats probably the ONLY thing I don't like about it, is its exhaust system, but I can change all of that! hehehe!

You do realize that those are pictures of an aftermarket exhaust don't you?

Notice the mandrel bends and the stainless steel piping? Also where it splits into 2 pipes in the rear is much different than stock. A much nicer set up IMHO...

To make the exhaust straight, I think they should change the fuel tank with a one that has a ridge that goes right down the middle so that the exhaust can fit right under the tank. And also, dont forget the heat shield between the tank and the exhaust... cause if it aint there.. you know whats gonna happen <img src=/images/forums/snitz/laugh.gif width=15 height=31 border=0>

Just my 2 cents... <img src=/images/forums/snitz/tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0>

Actually if they made a ridge in the gas tank, you'd have problems using all your fuel as the pump would not be able to pull from both sides.

One they did well with the gas tank was locate it between the wheels. That will definitely improve handling.

Speaking of exhausts.... does it make any difference whether you have a straight exhaust or a curved exhaust in terms of performance improvements?

Curves slow the air down so the answer is yes.

You can also tell it is aftermarket cause there is no cat.<img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0>

What kind of mufflers are those? Those are nice looking.
