Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior twin exhuast any one got it on there Celica

does it improve your car perfomance?

I do, check out my profile for pictures.

how much was it to get and where

It was about $300 and it was custom done. It was done by a local shop here where I live at. There are some exhaust systems that have been done for the celica already. There was a post about this before, try to search for it.

it deminishes perfoamance doesnt it?????????????? i heard it is too little back pressure

Yes, it decreases Performance.

there's a company in europe who makes one (don't remember the name) and there's Varis, and they make on in stainless steel or titanium, but since it's a JDM parts, it's gonna cost you an arm an a leg. IMO dual exhaust are just for looks, so if you want it for look, then knock yourself out.

and yeah, it hurts Performance.

It does not decrease Performance. I've had SEVERAL friends with dual exhausts (Y pipe) and they love it. It provides the same Performance as would a regular axel back/cat back system would. I'm going to stick with that untill i see some dyno sheets. The following are examples.

it actually lowers your Performance. The celica is 4 cylinder.. there's no reason to put a dual exhaust on it, other than looks.

Ok Eyger, I'll grant you that with the "Y pipe" you may not lose Performance, but there is certainly no advantage of that setup over any other aftermarket exhaust that has bigger piping than stock. It's just for looks, and as such, it's a waste of money IMO since the whole point of getting an exhaust is Performance (and perhaps the sound, which can also be easily achieved with a single pipe).

Yah yah dude, it's 100% for looks. I just want to try to clear up the misconceptions, because a lot of people ask questions like these.
The only reason one would go from a single exhaust to a dual exhaust for increased gains would be like if you had a V-8 engine. And some larger displacment 6's can benefit from it as well.

I think Evan was acting blonde again

we all know that a dual exhaust is for looks on on cars

Ha ha. Dual exhausts are cool by me!

I was replying to the question posted at the top of this thread

yea even thoguh there is still only one cat that cat still only provides a minemal amount of back pressure most is done by the muffler
it would be like getting the trd sport exhaust only weighing twice as much
