Not really, but what would be the point? If I had a 500 rwhp v6 camaro or firebird I would def not rebadge it as I would want to keep it a sleeper, which is what the other poster was suggesting, put a single exit quiet exhaust on it and have people think its a v6.

Go single exhaust. I had a single Moroso Spiralflow dumped before the axle before and it rocked. If I didn't get such a good deal on my Magnaflow, I would have had a custom single out catback done.

I say go for zero tail pipes. Dump that ****. I have mine dumped on my SS and it looks awesome. I think this way since these cars don't have cut-outs in the rear bumper (unless you have CME of course...).

Yea the 1998 SS and WS6 Trans Am had factory single outlet exhaust. I liked this setup and I may put it on my 2002 SS Camaro. You can still buy it thru GM! $500.00

Depends on the area. Some places had different exhaust regulations to meet.

Different dealers different cars.

That's what I have. I'll agree on the sound/performance, but I'm NOT in love with the way it looks (too stock Fox body/SN95 Mustang "long piped"). I wish I could have an all 304 system, that sounds/performs like the 2OTL, but has a big single turndown/dump after the axle. That would be perfection, to me at least, on a Z28/SS (as well as stealthy/clean looking/anti-bling).

You are wrong. Lots of people do not believe this, but 1998 was the only year of the OEM single outlet exhaust for the SS and WS6 TA.

My car has G2 springs on it and I don't hit anything. With the Kook headers and custom LG Y-pipe I have yet to scrape it in parking garages, curbs, or speed humps.
