I think it would be pretty sweet, it's not common and people might think it's not a big mean v8 till they hear it.

I would say go for it.

I was going to run single outlet. I kind of regret getting this expensive Bassani.

If you ask me, the fake dual exhaust we all use is, as you young guys say, "gay". It's just extra weight. Sure it looks cool...but...

There was this nerd in HS, waaay back in the day, that had like a 70 Charger with a 318. It had a two barrel carb and single exhaust, it was nothing special. We gave this guy endless **** when he bolted an extra exhaust tip to his bumper to make it look like duals.

if you have a z28 or formula, you could get a pretty quiet single exit exhaust with a cutout and rebadge it to say firebird or rs. sort of a sleeper

I like the idea of a single exhaust setup. I've got a 02 Firehawk, so i stuck withe the stock looking setup so that noone would think that I had a lot of stuff done to the car. It is always fun to see peoples faces when I crank the car at a carshow. Under the hood looks stock except for the headers. That being said I don't think you could pull off a sleeper look with a SS. Friend of mine has a Z28 with single stock looking exhaust. He even took the Z28 badges off of the car-550 RWHP really suprising for most people.

I ran a single outlet 4" mufflex system. It was a real sleeper compared to the Iraqi bus setup I have now.

Why would your exhaust change your sexual preference?

You must be a catcher.

Why? You guys would jump all over someone if they turbocharged their v6 to 500rwhp and rebadged it as z28 or formula.

Persoanlly i think it would be terrible to have a single outlet, but thats just my opinion, stick with dual pipes.

Just took the a single exhaust pipe setup off the 99Z for twins. Liked the look, used a '98ss single crome tip and changed the muffler to a dynomax (summit), sounded good. People did ask if it was a rebadge/fake Z The only other comment is having two speakers doesn't make it stereo, nothing wrong with one.

I have a single dumped before the axle. Exhaust tips are overrated.

I ran a single 4" Mufflex catback for a while. Loved the look of it on my Z28 and it sounded awesome with the LT's / Catted y-pipe. It was actually louder then when I ran the LT's / ORY with a dual dual catback.
