custom exhaust for an FC
hello all, I'm going to be building an exhaust for my FC and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.
I don't have any pipe bending equipment so I'll have to get a shop to bend the pipes or something, but I plan on it all being bolt-up by welding on some of the stock style flanges.
Any suggestions ???

Seperated exhaust pipes all the way back (i.e. true dual), as recommended by Racing Beat and confirmed by a bunch of guys I know who mess around with these things.

You would think a properly placed collector would make for a better "tuned" exhaust system, but Racing Beat says otherwise. I have a friend who messes around with the NA's a LOT, so I trust his judgement when he says true dual makes for the best power - ha also races his cars at NASA events, so he's no dummy.

just do a search in 2nd gen for true duals.....you will find a lot of threads debating single vs. dual, etc......basically, you can just get your mufflers and header, and go to a muffler shop. Depending on what you have for emmissions testing there, the shop can weld up a 3" set for you that goes from header to mufflers for somewhere around $300.....some of the FC guys are running this and they all seem to love it, and for that price I think I will like it too!!

I had a header the bonez cat and a single N1. Rx7_ragtop has a custom 3" both sounded very similar. I always liked the sound of the dual N1's so perhaps a more common muffler would be availible at your local shop.
Good luck
