For future reference, If your not going to be of any help, don't bother posting your un-related comment in my threads.. thanks. And like I said, its not for power gain purposes. I have the Bomber rear bumper which is built for a dual exhaust. So it will actually look nice on my car.

Damn, do you know how much of a slow down I'm looking at?? As you know the 420A isn't that powerful to began with. This is mostly a show car, but I still would like to obtain the little bit of extra HP (and i do mean little) that I have gained from my basic mods. If you seriously think its beneficial to have only one exhaust, I can just by a different bumper OR do one exhaust with the bomber bumper which will look a little silly in my opinion. I just think the bumper looks really nice on my car.
