There is no right answer. You're going to hear people prefer both. It boils down to what your plans are and what you want. There are a lot of cars making a lot of horsepower with trual duals, likewise with the y. Like I said there is no right answer to your question as to which is better.

My plan is longtube headers through an off-road y pipe through factory catback with a cutout. That way for daily to work and back stuff I have the convenience of a nice quiet car that my neighbors don't hate and when I want to race I flip a switch and open the cutout and poof free flowing exhaust.

loved the way my old duals with h-pipe sounded.

volume, gas stench, and ground clearance made me get tired of it though and I went back to a y-pipe setup. duals are cool for weekend cars and track cars, but for a DD I wouldn't recommend them.

I have true duals. I gained around .5-1mph over an open y pipe in the same DA.

I would prefer as much stock as I could. I hate dealing with aftermarket exhausts. They are the biggest pain in the ***. I'd rather do a cam swap than exhaust work.
