Considering making my exhaust into a "twin" with a difference..

The supercharged E85 I was working on yesterday looked like this, and I DO like it...

I would (obvz) be keeping my modded backbox, so will be changing the tips, and adding the second outlet, what do peeps think?

I also quite like the tailpipes on this now, as it has grown on me, and is also "different"

BTW, I've got a set of OE backboxes somewhere in my pile of junk spares.

With having the carver DSP amp in the boot, I don't think I can chop the battery box, hence keeping my oem'ish rear box and adding an outlet.

Hi Mike.

I like it but think it would look better with 'quad' tips rather than the two pal. :D

2x2, won't be an ///M wannabe as long as you don't stick the badges on as well haha!

I think stick with the tried and tested. Oval in my opinion would look too after market, but it's your car and either way it'll look good :)

Too much exhaust area on a car that small, looks like it belongs on an RS4 Avant.

With your skills and equipment why not. I like the quad exhaust look :thumbsup:

Would you be sourcing an M back bumper or cutting the original?

Afraid I'm an oe fan here, in my eyes it won't add any more performance & will only add to the weight so I see it as style over substance. Only my opinion of course :thumbsup:

Yup I like the oval look. :thumbsup:

Just be sure to fit a nice big SC, so the go matches the show. :wink:

I think quads look :drool: and get a :thumbsup: from me :D or how about 1x1 like the e89 35i/is? A style only mod is fine as it's just stamping your mark on your p&j and I'm sure it'll sound even better than when I heard it at ZEDfest :lol:

Looks superb! How much to do it? :thumbsup:
EDIT: 2x2 but deffo pipe(s) on the driver's side too, it helps balance the car IMO.
